Hello and Mabuhay!

Greetings from Pistahan HQ! It is our pleasure to invite you to participate in this year’s Pistahan Parade happening on Saturday, August 13, 2022. The event is one of the largest celebrations of Filipino community and culture in the U.S. The fun two-day Pistahan Festival at the Yerba Buena Gardens is expected to draw over 50,000 individuals from the San Francisco Bay Area and beyond. As we emerge from 2 years of the pandemic, we are celebrating our 29th Anniversary this year with a theme: “Homecoming: Reconnect with Our Roots and Community.”

The Parade kicks off the Pistahan weekend and will start at 11 am sharp, along Market Street from Civic Center to the Yerba Buena Gardens.

Bring your group together and get your groove on! Prizes will be awarded for:

» Best dressed

» Best spirit

» Best choreography

» Best overall contingent

Sign up soon to ensure your organization’s placement in the parade.

Registration Fee is $50

Vehicle Fee is $30 (for each vehicle)

We are excited to invite you to join us in celebration of our community’s resilience, unity and solidarity. Please be sure to submit your online parade registration at your earliest opportunity. Click here to register.

Send your representative(s) to receive updated Parade information and logistics instructions for the assembly area and disembarkment.
