Meet More Chances

Banna is located 34km southeast of Laoag City. It is a humble but
progressive town. Aside from rice which is a major agricultural crop,
garlic, tobacco, cotton, beans and other vegetables are produced.
Other industry in town  which is known in other provinces and are
being sold in Manila, is the woven cloth. It includes Ilocano
blankets, bed spreads, pillow cases and bathrobes.


Banna has paved way to the development of its ecotourism. A zipline
adventure was opened for public at Brgy. Caruibquib which is called
Paraiso  Ti Caruibquib. The area is used to be a forest but with the
initiative of the Barangay councils and with the support of the
Municipal Government, the project was done successfully.


Town Festival

It is an annual celebration in town that happens every first week of
April. Festivities include cookfest, display of Ilocano food and
native delicacies, beauty pageant,  Balikbayan Night, Community Night
and fireworks display. The most anticipated events are the Carabao
Race and Bicycle Race. The highlight of the festivities are the grand
parade of The Dancing Tricycle Drivers, and the  Panag-abuos Festival
Dance Competition.


Visit Banna and enjoy its fresh air and green scenery.
