In line with its aim of promoting Pangasinan to be Number 1, not only in Tourism but in all aspects, the Sangguniang Panlalawigan officially declared the month of September as Pangasinan Tourism Month.

Authored by Vice Governor Ferdinand Z. Calimlim Jr, this has been approved under Provincial Resolution No. 743-2014 declaring the month of September of every year as "Pangasinan Tourism Month" last September 1, 2014.  This is also in support of the observance of the World Tourism Day celebrated every 27th day of September as declared by the United Nations World Tourism Organizattion (UNWTO) and the observance of the National Tourism Week every last week of September as declared by Presidential Proclamation No. 894 dated October 3, 1996.

With the concerted efforts of the Pangasinenses, the Local Government particularly the Tourism Operations Division headed by Chief Maria Luisa A. Elduayan and investors, Pangasinan Tourism has been continuously growing. More and more tourists flock to the province every year to enjoy its pristine beaches and other natural wonders, historical heritage sites, religious centers, festivals, local cuisines and the warm welcoming Pangasinenses.  

The Vice Governor said that this declaration will help the aggressive efforts of Governor Amado T. Espino Jr. in promoting Pangasinan as a choice tourist destination and a venue for conventions, conferences, sports activities and other national as well as international events.
