is celebrated on the third Saturday of September in Naga
City, Bicol Philippines. All roads and routes will lead to Naga City in
Camarines Sur where six million Bicolanos from here and abroad will
flock to that progressive city to pay honor to the Virgin of
Peñafrancia, miraculous patroness of the Bicol Region. Bicolanos from
all walks of life will be in Naga City to meet their relatives and
partidarios, share food, drinks, and prayers with them, and most of all,
to pay homage and make thanksgiving to the Virgin of Peñafrancia, whom
the Bicolanos fondly call Ina. Viva la Virgen, they will shout to high
heavens. The feast day is headed by a novena, nine days of prayer, in
honor of the Virgin.
