Dance has always been an integral part of the Philippines culture. Traditional dances including Maria Clara, Rural, Tribal, Mountain and Moros are now performed all around the world by Filipino migrants wanting to preserve and pass on their cultural identity. Filipinos also excel and participate in Modern dance, ball room dancing and traditional ballet at a world class level. Wherever you find Filipinos you will find them dancing and singing.


Cultural Center Of The Philippines

The Cultural Center of the Philippines nurtures and promotes artistic excellence, Filipino aesthetics and identity, and positive cultural values towards a humanistic global society.
The Cultural Center of the Philippines was created in 1966 through Executive Order no. 30, with the purpose of promoting and preserving Filipino arts and culture. It was formally inaugurated on September 8, 1969, starting a three month long inaugural festival opened by the epic musical Dularawan. Since then, the CCP has sought to truly embody its logo of katotohanan (truth), kagandahan (beauty) and kabutihan (goodness). The best artists from all over the country and around the world have graced the CCP theaters and galleries, enthralling Filipinos for over thirty years.
