La Torre Festival of Cardona, Rizal

Cardona, Rizal celebrates "La Torre Festival" every 6th of October. The bells are housed in “La Torre” meaning the tower of the church belfry. Folks and children look up to “La Torre” often awed with different sizes and sounds of the bells housed therein. For years to date, their bells in “La Torre” announced cultural events. They even issue warnings in the advent of unforeseen calamities. The traditional and colorful “La Torre” will come alive with its joyful noise in concert with the music of the brass bands. It is not only a celebration of thanksgiving but it is also a celebration of hope that Cardona may continuously remain in the graces of our Lord.
