Testimonials
We had a great experience overall. Considering we are not from Toronto, everything went well and organized. I was also blown away by the amount of people that joined the event. We were able to talk to a lot of Filipinos and had fun as well.
The event was also organized well in terms of logistics and safety. Tents were already up when we arrived and there were many security personnel in the area that controlled the crowd.
Lastly, I loved the variety of vendors in the event. I think it's all different type of company and food vendors which made it so diverse and fun to walk around.
On behalf of ABM college, thank you so much for being a part of your event hope to see you again next year kindly include us always in any event you have.
FUN Philippines was an incredible experience. We are definitely looking forward to sponsoring next year.
It's my pleasure giving out our testimonial and good experience during the event. The event was successful even though we had some incidents but overall it was a very productive and a successful event.
Congratulations on your successful event! Our team were ecstatic to experience Filipino festival after pandemic. Looking forward to more Filipino events.
Thank you for inviting our group the Ifugao Association of Canada and the Ontario Filipino Women’s Club to participate in the Fun Philippines Festival. It’s been a joy to showcase the Ifugao Native dances. The event was really helpful in encouraging our younger generation to perform and be proud of our heritage.
The Rice Terraces backdrop also gave a lot of interests to other people who stop by and take photos. Lots of fun stories to tell but the most amazing thing of all are the people willing to try our native attire.
I also very much appreciate you for extending the invitation to the Ontario Filipino women’s club. While looking for a Filipino cultural dance to perform we learn that there are so many Filipino cultural dances that we haven’t known before. This opportunity has given us a chance to educate ourselves about Filipino cultures and dances.
Fun Philippines Street Festival allowed us to show some of the Philippine folk dance and native dance to others people who may not know of its existence. I hope that we were able to educate and give interests to other races who came to the festival to visit our country and experience first hand what it’s like to live in the Philippines.

- I can say FUN Phil elevated the street festival to something not done before. Beyond the usual song and dance routine, the political pontificating, and the social climbing typical of community leaders, the two-day fest was a first in many respects. - Social Media Post

- In such a meaningful way, FUN Phil took aim at the heart (figuratively, of course), the very core of every living thing.

- I believe the organization succeeded in planting the seeds of love of country by incorporating the swearing-in into its program. To me, it symbolizes the acceptance of responsibility for what may happen in the home country. That's patriotism. - Social Media Post

To be honest, It’s been a tough couple of years for me, so having this opportunity has been such a blessing in showing my brand to many people and it turned out amazing! People from different walks of life have been resonating with my products; all ages, races, gender, you name it - they all connected with my products and with them they bring a piece of Philippines home - Festival Vendor

I hope we can work together again because Fun Philippines is definitely the future of representing Filipino Culture.
