The celebration of the Philippines and Spain connection continues three years after we commemorated the significance of the quincentennial in the Philippines and Filipinos. In fact, for Filipinos, the introduction of Christianity in the Philippines was one of the invaluable gifts that we cherish from the Spaniards and paved the way to make Christianity the dominant religion in the country.
La Fiesta, will feature an exceptional flamenco performance presented by the talented Manuela Sanchez of “Artextrema.” The dance and music of flamenco will transport attendees to the passion and emotion of Spain, creating a unique and unforgettable atmosphere.
Renowned Chef Chele Gonzalez will be responsible for delighting palates with an exquisite menu that fuses authentic flavors with innovative culinary techniques. From irresistible appetizers to exquisite desserts, each dish will be a masterpiece reflecting gastronomic excellence.
In addition, attendees will have the opportunity to enjoy a carefully curated selection of beverages, perfectly complementing both the culinary experience and the captivating flamenco show.
This event promises to be a unique celebration that brings together the best of Spanish culture, gastronomy, and art. The Spanish Chamber of Commerce in the Philippines looks forward to welcoming all attendees to this unforgettable evening.
