The Philippine Independence Day (PID) Executive Committee is preparing for the 111th Philippine Independence Day Celebration to be held on June 12 at the Al Nasr Leisureland.
Arrangements are under way by the committee’s head Dante Delizo, with the cooperation of more than 40 Filipino Community organisations in Dubai and Northern Emirates.
The event will coincide with the 3rd Migrant Workers Day, which will be conducted in the morning after the flag-raising ceremony at the Philippine Consulate General in Al Ghusais.
According to PID spokesman Dante Agnote, who is also head of the Pinoy Expats Auto Club in Emirates (PEACE), a motorcade will follow after the flag-raising ceremony.
Around 100 vehicles and motorbikes are expected to participate.
The activities at the Al Nasr Leisureland will include parlor games for all ages, beauty pageant for children aged 4 to 7 years old, a sing-a-like contest, a battle of the bands, and a mini-car show, among others.
Agnote said that 10 fully modified cars designed by PEACE members will be displayed. He also added that a mini-bazaar will be held the whole day.
The major highlight will be a performance in the evening by popular TV artists from the Philippines.
