Pandi’s summer themed float claims top spot at Parada ng Karosa 2024

CITY OF MALOLOS — As a creative nod to the town’s growing reputation as a premier leisure destination, Pandi town made waves as the top winner with their show-stopping float themed around water parks and wave pools at the Parada ng Karosa 2024 held in front of the Provincial Capitol Building here recently.

Being the best float this year, Pandi town took home P100,000 cash prize, a trophy and products from Sunnyware Philippines while the Group of Bulacan Events Professionals won 2nd place with P70,000 cash prize and Guiguinto town being on 3rd place with P50,000, both receiving their trophies as well.

Pandi Tourism Officer Maria Jemabelle Bagay said that they came up with their own distinct concept, highlighting the rich tourism and cultural heritage of Bulacan, which captivated both the judges and the spectators.

“Pinag-isipan po namin mabuti ang theme na ilalaban namin and since sa Bayan ng Pandi makikita ang maraming private resorts and biggest wave pool, naisipan po namin na tourist destination po ang i-feature po namin ngayong taon,” she said.

Additionally, the floats from Angat, Bocaue, the City of Malolos, and the Bulacan Event Supplier Association were awarded consolation prizes, each receiving P20,000 cash prize and a trophy.
