The City of Tagum was again filled with songs and music as the Musikahan Festival 2015 surged with musical spectacle that truly proved the city’s claim as the “Music Capital of Mindanao”.

What was once a minor musical celebration is now considered as one of the country’s biggest music festival. It started as an annual venue to showcase Tagumeños talents in music but has morphed through the years into a musical event that celebrates the musical ingenuity not only of the Tagumeños but of Mindanao and the Filipino people as a whole.

Since 1999, Musikahan Festival has been the City’s signature festival aimed at showcasing the country’s love for music and the Filipino’s excellence in musical composition, performance and production. Since the creation of this well-loved music festival, it has attracted not only spectators from around the region but even guests and participating groups coming far from the Visayas and Luzon. It even went international when Tagum City was chosen to host the 3^rd International Rondalla Festival in 2011 participated by different groups coming from Asia, Europe and the Americas.
