NEW JERSEY — The Meadowlands Expo Center in Secaucus New Jersey once again opens its doors to the largest indoor gathering of Filipinos on the East Coast.

The camaraderie that is seen at the Fiesta all throughout the weekend brings the feeling of togetherness of a unified people who, despite the odds encountered at times, find solace and conquer homesickness at the Fiesta seeing familiar and new faces of same lineage.

Big-name companies bearing easily recognizable brands in various industries find their participation at the Philippine Fiesta to be tangibly gratifying as exhibitors or sponsors, proven by their participation every year.
