The Western Visayas Fiesta Truck is equipped with a state-of-the-art theater-like features like a 6.92 x 11.92 feet high-resolution screen and six clear speaker systems. It aims to further promote local tourism as well as to add fun and excitement to the different festivals and fiestas in Aklan, Antique, Bacolod City, Capiz, Guimaras, Iloilo and Negros Occidental.
The WV Visayas Fiesta Truck project was well-supported by Pepsi-Cola Phils. Inc, as represented by Mr. Lyndon Cuadra; Tibiao Bakery's Ronald Lim; JD Bakeshop's Emil Diez; Food Land Inc. and Mister Donut through Mr. Benjo Gepana; and Miss Tweety dela Calzada of San Miguel Corporation/CKAG.
The new Fiesta Truck was made possible by the massive efforts exerted by the private sectors and LGUs to make Western Visayas the next tourist-magnet of the country. It is a remarkable testimony that indeed great things can happen under the spirit of unity.
