Zamboanga Hermosa Festival 2022 Logo

8:41 PM

This year marks the comeback of the grandest and most colorful festival in Zamboanga Peninsula, the Zamboanga Hermosa Festival! Under the leadership of our new Mayor, John M. Dalipe, the month-long celebration this October will bring back events that were cancelled during the pandemic such as the Regatta de Zamboanga (Vinta Race), Streetdance Competition, Parade of Lights and many more!

The City Special Events Team, which I served as Creative Director since 2015, has been dissolved, and the the responsibility to organize the festivities and commemorative events starting this year was also given back to the City Tourism Office, which held the position prior to 2015. Nevertheless, I have been tasked to create a new branding for the Hermosa Festival with the theme "Celebracion de Colores."


The iconic Hermosa Festival emblem which became the face of the grandest festival has now retired and gave way to a new look. The new logo focuses on the typography featuring icons of Zamboanga embedded in its colorful letters of "Hermosa" representing the vibrant cultures and exciting activities of the fiesta. The background is inspired by the colorful mat or "banig" which are weaved by the indigenous people whos colorful sail called "vinta" served as the icon of Zamboanga for years. You may download the .png file below. Use of the logo is only for official events approved by the City Tourism Office and promotion of these events.


Other icons that can be seen in the new logo are the image of "Our Lady of the Pillar," the city's patroness; Fort Pillar; Yakan weave and shield;  Mascota de Zamboanga; flowers (gumamela and bougainvillea); City Hall; heritage lamps; palm trees, Taluksangay Mosque; diving and underwater biodiversity. The typography for "Zamboanga" and "Festival 2022" is the official font family and color used for the branding of Mayor John Dalipe - blue, also the color representing Nuestra Señora La Virgen del Pilar, the center of the religious celebration of the Catholics who celebrate her feast day on October 12.

Zamboanga Hermosa Festival Logo

Zamboanga Hermosa Festival Logo Emblem Insignia The Hermosa Festival also known as Zamboanga La Hermosa Festival or popularly known as Fiesta Pilar a month-long festival held each year in the city of Zamboanga, the city center of Zamboanga Peninsula Region in the Philippines. It is one of the oldest festivals in the country and the most awaited event in the region.

The festival is held in honor of the miraculous image of Our Lady of the Pillar (Spanish and Chavacano: Nuestra Señora del Pilar), the patroness of Zamboanga City which is held in every 12 October. It is also the patroness of Zaragoza in Spain, the sister city of Zamboanga in Philippines. (source: wiki)

The official emblem of Zamboanga Hermosa Festival was launched in October 2015 to celebrate a new age of the festival, bringing a new and fresh look and feel to the grandest festival in this region. The insignia has three aspects: the cultural, community and the religious aspects.

The colorful composition are inspired by the vinta sail, a traditional transportation of the indigenous tribe of Badjaos. The Regatta, a race of the vintas is one of the most awaited events in the festival. The Vinta is considered as an icon of Zamboanga City and perhaps the entire region, representing the different cultures who live in harmony. The boat represents the united community, and above it people are one in celebration, dancing and worshipping the patron saint, El Nuestra Señora del Pilar.

This year, the City Government is already preparing for the biggest fiesta of the year. Here's the official look and feel of Zamboanga Hermosa Festival 2016. Check out the calendar of activities below. Click the images for a larger view.
