Philippine Fiesta in America slated August 18-19

The Philippine Fiesta in America provides a venue for businesses to sell to the lucrative Filipino-American market.

For the 14th year in a row, the largest and most successful indoor gathering of Filipinos in the East Coast comes alive.

Dubbed the Philippine Fiesta in America, the two-day Filipino-themed exposition celebrates the vibrancy of Philippine culture.

Guests have arrived in droves from New York, New Jersey, the neighboring states and as far as California, Canada and the Philippines, in crowds over 20,000 for two days.

This year’s Philippine Fiesta in America is set for the weekend of August 18-19 at the Meadowlands Expo Center in Secaucus, New Jersey, USA. The Fiesta provides a rare opportunity for families and friends to renew ties and values.

One of the Philippine Fiesta in America’s key success factors is the ability to provide a venue for businesses to sell to the lucrative Filipino-American market—
a robust, multibillion-dollar economic force with a high per-capita income.

Organized by Nanding and Mila Mendez, the Fiesta is an ideal place for small businesses looking to expand their customer base. Start-ups who wish to throw their hats into the business arena are likewise encouraged to participate and run with the best.

Both Filipino and American companies vie for new markets and fortify their positions. Empowerment and assertiveness are promoted by providing an atmosphere conducive to encouraging lively interaction between exhibitors and visitors, thus paving the way toward mutually profitable business relationships.

The Philippine Fiesta, however, is more than just a trade fair and social gathering. It is also a rallying cry to rediscover Filipino heritage. The world-renowned artistry of the Filipino community shines in cultural events ranging from traditional dance numbers to show stopping extravaganzas, as internationally-acclaimed visual and performing artists from the US and the Philippines showcase their exceptional, high profile talent. For those who miss the home-cooked meals of the islands, the Food Court offers a wide variety of dishes made to perfection based on recipes originating from the various regions of the Philippines.

Sponsored by Kapatid TV5 and Aksyon TV International, this year’s Philippine Fiesta in America will feature Kapatid Star Aga Muhlach and Sensational Comedienne KBrosas. Other sponsors include: San Miguel Beer, Western Union, Mama Sita’s, DirectTV, Inquirer.net, Asian Journal Publications, ABC Global Systems, Moneydart, Special Edition Press and Tancinco Law Offices.
