About the #breatheBaguio campaign

The Summer Capital officially launched its #breatheBaguio brand during the 112th Baguio Charter Day Anniversary at Baguio Convention Center with Tourism Sec. Bernadette Romulo Puyat, Mayor Benjamin Magalong, Rep. Marquez Go and other officials and guests.

This year’s celebration theme is, “Moving Forward As One”.

The city tourism and special events division under Engr. Aloysius Mapalo spearheaded the formulation of the brand in collaboration with the Baguio Tourism Council, Baguio Creative Council and other partners from the creative sector.

Mapalo said the #breatheBaguio brand is inspired by Baguio’s history that was formerly an Ibaloy Rancheria  that was then transformed by the Americans into a hill station for rest, recreation and wellness, then to what it is now – a bustling highly-urbanized melting pot of various cultures.

The “breathe” denotes a relaxing feeling or being able to breathe when in Baguio that is also popularly known as the City of Pines, he explained.

Mapalo said they also came up with a slogan and logo that will be used in posters, merchandise and other promotional materials bearing the #breatheBaguio brand. /
