TACLOBAN CITY — In preparation for the annual observance of All Saints' Day and All Souls' Day (Undas), local florists and vendors have officially set up commercial stalls along Justice Romualdez Street outside Plaza Rizal for the city’s Flower Fair 2026.
Organized by the Tacloban City Government through the City Cooperative Development and Livelihood Assistance Office (CCDLAO), the seasonal street market runs from Friday, October 30, through Monday, November 2, 2026.
Showcasing Fresh Local Blooms
The four-day fair highlights fresh, locally grown flowers sourced directly from flower farms across Tacloban City and neighboring municipalities in Leyte.
By providing a centralized, accessible space outside Plaza Rizal, the local government aims to support small-scale flower growers, local cooperatives, and micro-vendors while giving residents a convenient location to buy fresh floral arrangements for their departed loved ones.
Supporting Local Cooperatives And Micro-Vendors
CCDLAO officials noted that regulating vendor spaces along Justice Romualdez Street helps maintain pedestrian traffic flow near the city center while boosting the local agricultural economy during peak seasonal demand.
Residents visiting public cemeteries and private memorial parks across Tacloban are encouraged to patronize local flower growers and cooperative stalls throughout the holiday weekend.
