SM Lanang Premier opens Kadayawan with month-long Durian Fest

SM Lanang Premier hails the ‘King of Fruits’ with a festival to support the city’s much-anticipated Kadayawan celebration from August 5 to September 4, 2016. This month-long festival is a grand showcase of the bountiful harvest by the local farmers and growers of durian in support of the city’s annual Kadayawan celebration.

Since its launching on August 10, 2013, the Kadayawan Durian Festival has aimed to spread the word on Davao City as one of the country’s top-of- mind food tourism destinations. It has been well received and has become one of the must-visit events mallgoers look forward to every Kadayawan season.

Now in its fourth year, this event will continue to raise consumer awareness and patronage of Davao’s durian not only in the local scene but in the national and international scenes as well.
