The Lakambini ng Koronadal Pageant is an annual celebration of the beauty and grace of Koronadal’s finest young ladies who vie for the coveted title and become the ambassador of goodwill for the city.
This celebrated event rooted from olden traditions when members of prominent families and clans of the early settlers gather at the town plaza for the annual commemoration of Marbel’s foundation day. They would select the most desirable young ladies from among their group and parade them around the town center on colorfully decorated kalesa or kariton. Then, they would all congregate at the plaza for a great feast.
Over time, this contest has evolved into a yearly affair that seeks for a young Koronadaleña with the best personality and traits worthy of representing Koronadal’s radiant beauty and distinct character.
