The Iloilo City Government is pleased to announce the endorsement of Iloilo City’s bid to the UNESCO Creative Cities Network under the field of Gastronomy.
As the city continues to push for more initiatives through innovation, we also want to introduce the metropolis as a global gastronomic hotspot as prevalent in the Ilonggo culture and tradition, such as in the annual celebrations and fiestas including the Dinagyang Festival, Paraw Regatta, Iloilo Market and Trade Fair, and among others.
Mayor Treรฑas expressed his heartfelt gratitude for the efforts of the city in this application, noting that “we will work extra hard so that we will get that UNESCO award.”
Let us continue to support and aim for recognition as we bring Iloilo’s name forward as the best food spot globally.
