The Sandugo Festival is an annual historical event in Bohol, Philippines. It commemorates the blood compact or treaty of friendship between Miguel Lopez de Legaspi, representing the King of Spain, and Datu Sikatuna, a native chieftain. The festival gained momentum during Governor Constancio Chatto Torralba’s term and has since become a major celebration. It features a month-long program, including a trade fair, entertainment, beauty pageant, street parade with dancing competition, re-enactment of the blood compact, church services, fireworks, and sports tournaments. The festival now coincides with other significant events in July, attracting visitors and boosting the local economy. The event showcases Bohol’s culture and brings improvements to the province.
