With the motivating theme "Tourism and Sustainable Transformation," the BS Tourism Management Department celebrated Tourism Month 2025 with pride. Held October 3–4, 2025, the two-day celebration was full with interesting events that demonstrated creativity, collaboration, and the essence of sustainable tourism.
Tourism Students took an active part in a number of contests and cultural presentations that highlighted the significance of sustainability in the travel and tourism sector throughout the event. With pride, passion, and cooperation, our team, Tribu Ardilya, represented the 4th-year tourism students.
Tourism Month is celebrated annually around the world to recognize the vital role of tourism in cultural preservation, economic growth, and environmental stewardship. This year’s celebration aimed to raise awareness about sustainable practices and encourage future tourism professionals to be responsible stewards of both people and the planet.
One of the highlights of the celebration was the Promotional Video Competition, where students showcased their creativity and storytelling skills by producing tourism videos that highlight local destinations and promote sustainable travel. Our team proudly featured Upper Lapu-Lapu, Poblacion, Narra, Palawan. A place known for its breathtaking natural beauty and hidden attractions such as the Leopard Tunnel, Trident Lake, and Upper Lapu-Lapu Falls. Through our video, we aimed to promote the area’s charm while emphasizing the importance of preserving its natural environment for future generations. It was a fulfilling experience and we are happy that our entry got the 1st place.
The celebration concluded with the highly anticipated Acquaintance Party, held at Center Point, Narra. The venue was beautifully adorned with glowing lights, and elegant decorations creating a sophisticated yet lively atmosphere. Students arrived in their best formal attire, enjoying a night filled with music, laughter, and unforgettable memories.
The Tourism Month 2025 celebration was not only a time for fun and fellowship but also a meaningful reminder that tourism is a powerful tool for transformation. One that encourages responsibility, inclusivity, and sustainability.🌿💚
