\u201cAdlaw sa Consolacion\u201d is an annual celebration of the municipality\u2019s foundation. This is duly highlighted through the Sarok Festival. Sarok is a native hat made from bamboo strips and dried banana leaves used by the farmers of Consolacion to protect themselves from pouring rain and raging heat of the sun. This has been a major source of livelihood of Barangay Tolotolo. Merging together the familiar Filipino folk dance steps of Miligoy de Cebu and attractive costumes paired with saroks resulted to beautiful culmination of culture and arts.<\/p>\n

When is Sarok Festival celebrated?<\/strong><\/p>\n

Sarok Festival\u2019s history can be traced on its first celebration in 1996 in honor of its Patron Saint San Narciso \u2013 chosen after the namesake of the governor\u2019s wife, Narcisa, who accepted the municipality\u2019s petition to become an independent municipality apart from Mandaue. This was however moved to February 14 through a resolution mandated by local officials, as part of the Founding Anniversary of the Municipality of Consolacion.<\/p>\n

On its 99th<\/sup> Founding Anniversary, Consolacion continues to illuminate a legacy of love, service, and unity shown through the use of sarok.<\/p>\n
