Events: La Union's Electric Float Parade 2016
Annually in the beautiful province of La Union, Philippines, we're celebrating the La Union foundation anniversary when it happened to be every March 2. Part of it's celebration is the grandiose electric floats parade that is happening a couple of days before the big night.
Aside from the electrifying floats, eyes were also focused to the 20 lovely and beautiful ladies with their creative product costumes.
This parade showcases the electrifying floats, costumes, and beauties of local talents based from their main municipality's product that promotes the government's advocacy "ONE Town; ONE Product".
Yearly the venue of the said parade is changing. This time, Municipality of Bacnotan is the host for the event.
Here are the photographs taken by two of the prides of La Union, Sir Airwind and Ma'am Matet:
