The Masskara Festival is here to stay, an icon for Bacolod as the city of smile. Today, with the more than four hundred fifty thousand Bacoleños giving their warmest smile. Masskara becomes a festival of a thousand smile per minute, projecting the Bacoleños ability to smile, to be gregarious and charming and to shoe his instinct to survive and triumphs over trials and challenges. Masskara is not history nor is it anchored on any historical, religious or cultural events. Artistic, yes.
