Fandanña Friday to begin February 18

(Tumon, Guam) In partnership with the Department of Parks and Recreation (DPR) and local food trucks, the Guam Visitors Bureau (GVB) is proud to announce a new event for the island community to enjoy – Fandanña Friday. Governor Joseph Flores Memorial Park (Ypao Beach) will play host to this event starting February 18, 2022 at 5 p.m.

“Fandanña means to get together in CHamoru and we invite everyone to get together on Friday evenings at Ypao,” said GVB President & CEO Carl T.C. Gutierrez. “We thank DPR Director Roque Alcantara and his team for partnering with us and our local food truck vendors. We will be hosting this event for the next few weeks and if the community response is great, we may continue it long-term. So, come join us and bring your family and friends. We’ll see you at the park!”

The starting lineup of vendors that will be featured by the Ypao beachside are:
  • The Food Truck
  • A&L
  • Loidas
  • Dikiki Doughnuts
  • Munchies
  • Matakos
  • Manang Pika’s
  • Shave it
  • Special attraction with John Ray Aguon
     
“Our intent is to not only work with food trucks, but other local businesses, artists, and musicians as we get a true feel for this event,” said GVB Sports & Events Community Development Officer Kraig Camacho. “We’re developing more activities that will aid in the recovery of the tourism industry.”
