Lubi-lubi Festival

Lubi-Lubi sa Glan Festival is a dance festival held every 25th of November, extolling the many uses of the coconut in homage to Sta. Catalina de Alexandria. Glan is one of seven towns of Sarangani which is located on the southern tip of the island of Mindanao. The town is touted as the tourism capital of the province. The Lubi-Lubi sa Glan Festival shows that there is more to the coconut than just copra.

The Lubi-Lubi Festival showcases the various uses of the coconut tree through street dances and other celebrations.

The residents of the peaceful town of Glan's version of the mardi gras or lubi-lubi serves as the highlight of the festivities in honor of the Sta. Catalina de Alexandria.
