THE famous Mambukal Mountain Resort in Barangay Minoyan, Murcia, Negros Occidental is the host for this festival. The festival is a symbolic celebration of man’s return to primitive time when he was closer to nature. Oneness with nature is the underlying theme behind this annual mud-moving spectacle. Check on its murky highlight - a lively street dancing parade with the participant wearing nothing but mudpacks (well, almost...). It's a surefire way to mix our ecological concerns with good, clean, cloddy fun - just be sure to shower afterwards!
First conceptualized by local artists to showcase Mambukal's natural wealth, the Mudpack Festival has also become a venue for educating the youth on environmental conservation. It is held every 3rd Saturday and Sunday of the month of June, coinciding with the feast of St. John de Baptist and the height of the monsoon season. The highlight of this emerging festival is a merry-making with dancers' faces covered with mudpack and bodies painted with Mambukal clay.
