Revolution 2025: Siklab

PhilFest Revolution is an annual dance competition and showcase where teams compete for the first-place prize by modernizing Filipino culture through a mix of hip-hop and contemporary dance. This event is part of PhilFest, a 3-day festival known as one of the largest celebrations of Filipino culture on the East Coast, attracting tens of thousands of guests over three days. Revolution 2025 will be held at PhilFest on Saturday, April 5, 2025 at 8:00 PM at the Philippine Cultural Foundation, Inc.’s Philippine Cultural Enrichment Complex, 14301 Nine Eagles Drive, Tampa FL 33626.

For Revolution 2025, the theme is Siklab—a spark, an ignition, a burst of energy that fuels movement and expression. Siklab represents the fire within every dancer, the passion behind every step, and the cultural vibrancy that connects tradition with innovation.

This year, we celebrate dance as both an art form and a cultural force, where movement tells stories, honors heritage, and pushes creative boundaries. Through Siklab, we recognize the power of Filipino artistry while embracing the limitless potential of dance in all its forms.
