Last March 3, 2018 was the official opening of the 81st Araw ng Davao. This is to celebrate the founding anniversary of the city with a theme: "Stand Tall, United, Resilient". Despite the city facing different kinds of challenges like the tragic fire in NCCC Mall last december, bombing threats, and the resignation of the former Vice Mayor Paulo Duterte; Dabawenyos remained strong and united.

Today, March 16, 2018 was the main day of its celebration. The day starts with a parade attended by the goverment officials, private organizations, and the tribal groups.
