Three hunters from neighbouring Majayjay— namely Marcos Tigla, Luis Gamba, and Lucas Mañawa— lost their way following the trail of wild animals at the foot of volcanic Mount Banahaw.

Fascinated by the bird's plumage and rhythmic chirps, the superstitious hunters took this as a sign of good fortune and thus settled in the place they named "Lucbán."

On December 26, 1941, Filipino and American troops defended Barrio Piis and the attack by the Japanese shifted to the Bataan Peninsula.

Pedro Cadelina of Lucban recommended changing the barrio into a municipality but due to the lack of residents, it was only made into a “visita”.

“Teniente Mayores” were appointed to head the ”visita”, the first of whom was from Polilio, followed by Arcadio Veluya, Laureano Nanola, Silverio Abueva, and Juan Saludades.

During Daya's term in office, three more barrios from Mauban – Banot, Bilucao, and San Bueno, became a part of Sampaloc through the efforts of Ireneo Domeo, the municipal secretary.

Beginning with a 6:00am mass at the Lucban Church,[20] this festival showcases a street of houses which are adorned with fruits, vegetables, agricultural products, handicrafts and kiping, a rice-made decoration, which afterwards can be eaten grilled or fried.
