TUBOD FESTIVAL

Tuburan’s name comes from the Sinugbuanong-binisaya word “Tubod”, meaning “spring” due to the abundance of springs in the town. The Tubod Festival is held every 13th of June in honor of the town’s patron saint, Saint Anthony of Padua. This annual festival demonstrates the Tuburanon temperament, culture and religious devotion. The concept of the festival revolved around two aspects – the town’s origin and history, and the religious belief and traditions of the Tuburanons that best describes the Tuburan spirit towards progress and prosperity.
