The splendid Patabang Festival gives identity to the festivities of the people of Tapaz.

Every September 20th to 30th, they joyfully celebrate this festival which is coined based on the people’s sense of heartfelt generosity and helping each other which is reflected in their day to day living.

Pagpatabang is a precious trait of Tapaznons and is best shown in occasional times of diligence and hardwork such as working in farms particularly during planting and harvesting season, bayanihan where a group of volunteers carry a house and transfer it from one place to another, assisting in the preparation of food during special occasions such as thanksgiving, weddings, and fiestas. This spirit of helping one another is celebrated through street dancing, concerts, and merry making and is common among the simple lives of Tapaznons.
