ANGELES CITY, Pampanga, Oct. 14 (PNA) -- Angels will once again flock the streets here as this city will hold the second GraciAngeles festival, which is part of the socio-civic activities of Fiestang Kuliat 2015.

The festival “dedicated to the patrons and guardians of Angeles City” will kick off on Friday, 6 p.m. at the Sto. Rosario Heritage District here.

“Holding the second GraciAngeles in the city is a testament to our community’s willingness in further preserving, protecting and promoting the rich heritage and history of our place,” City Mayor Edgarado Pamintuan said.

The festival, organized by Peter De Vera of Sinukwan Kapampangan Training Center for the Arts, will feature performers from participating schools, namely Achievers Special Education Center, Angeles City National Trade School, Republic Central Colleges, Teachers and Choreographers Dance Association, City College of Angeles, Holy Angel University, Systems Plus College Foundation, FG Nepomuceno Memorial High School, Sto. Rosario Elementary School, and from Sinukwan Kapampangan as well.

While the performers were dressed in all-white last year, they will be clad in silver and white for this year’s GraciAngeles.
