Negros Island is the fourth largest island in the Philippines and its major city Bacolod is the fourth largest city
in the Philippines. Negros Island is located in the middle of the Philippine Islands in the Visayan Islands between two other
large Visayan islands Cebu and Panay, and Negros is just north of Mindanao Island. The island is divided into two provinces:
Occidental Negros and Oriental Negros (recently ranked by Islands Magazine as one of the top 20 islands in the world for foreigners to live on). The Philippines' largest cave---Odloman Cave---is located in Mabinay in the middle of Negros Island.

The Festival calaboration of Tanjay City is done through "Saulog de Tanjay"  which is held every July 24th, the day before the city's fiesta. Featuring the unique reenactment of the battle between the Christians and the Moros. The natives of Tanjay were christianized by the Spanish friars in the name of Saint James the Greater when they came to the eastern coast of Negros for a religious expedition. Tanjay was regularly frequented by the Moros who had a knack in seizing the beautiful local maidens. The natives during such battles never failed to call on their patron saint, St. James the Greater for aid and protection. Miraculously, the Moros had never won in any of these battles. To commemorate such historical event, the "Saulog de Tanjay" festival was born. Marked with a flurry of colors and contagious, rhythmic drum beats, it is no doubt that this annual festival has never failed to draw in more and more tourists from all parts of the island just to visit and watch their Saulog Festival.
