"Ramdam natin ang pagkasabik ng lahat na makapasyal at mag-enjoy matapos ang higit isang taon ng paghihigpit. Ngunit lahat po tayo ay may responsibilidad na pangalagaan at panatiliin ang kagandahan ng ating lungsod. (We are all excited to go out and enjoy after over a year of quarantine restrictions. But we all have a responsibility to take care of and maintain the beauty of our city)."

Before the pandemic, the city had the annual tradition called Paskuhan sa Imus (Christmastime in Imus), a month-long series of concerts and trade fairs highlighted by the vibrant Christmas display at the City Plaza.
