The famous festival in the municipality is the Malitbog Sinulog Festival which is held every 15th of January in honor of its Patron, the Senor Santo Nino or the Holy Child Jesus.  In the last 15 years of its existence, thousand of devotees flocked to the town to witness the Sinulog Mardi Gras.  It is one event every Malitboganon looks forward to, especially those who no longer reside here.  The Sinulog Core Group which is composed of dancers from all walks of life – students, out-of-school youth, young mothers, young professionals – has been invited to perform in other parts of the country.
