The festival honors the town’s patron saints: San Pascual Baylon, Santa Clara, and Our Lady of Salambao, with each day dedicated to one of the saints. Participants engage in the traditional dance known as the “Sayaw sa Obando” (Dance in Obando), moving rhythmically to the sound of native music as a form of prayer or to seek blessings for fertility and a good harvest.
