A brief phreatic ash eruption occurred in the volcano on January 21, 2005, producing a 500 meters (1,600 ft) high ash plume. Phivolcs on Wednesday, March 11, raised Alert Level 1 in Mt. MANILA - An ash eruption occurred at Kanlaon Volcano early morning on Friday, the Philippine Institute of Volcanology and Seismology (Phivolcs) said. PHIVOLCS noted in a March 22, 2001 report that since January 2001, earthquake clusters or occurrences had been recorded by the seismic monitoring network around the volcano. The volcano has three hot springs on its slopes: Mambukal Hot Springs on the northwest, Bucalan Hot Spring and Bungol Hot Spring. These earthquakes might had signified a reactivation of the volcanic system at depth and could be a precursor to more vigorous activity, such as ash explosions. On December 12, 2015, Kanlaon had two low energy ash eruption. Kanlaon Volcano's seismic monitoring network recorded one hundred thirty-six (136) volcano-tectonic earthquakes on the western flanks during the 24-hour observation period. 80 volcanic earthquakes has been plotted since then. Light ashfall were reported in some barangays near Kanlaon Volcano. PHIVOLCS raised the alert level to 1 (mild restiveness). Kanlaon Volcano in Negros Island is being closely monitored by the Philippine Institute of Volcanology and Seismology (PHIVOLCS) after several earthquakes were recorded on its western flanks for the past 24 hours. Mayon in Albay, Mt. Furthermore, PHIVOLCS noted that the continued presence of low-frequency harmonic tremor, not recorded in the past at this volcano, heightens the possibility of magmatic eruption. The Philippine Institute of Volcanology and Seismology (Phivolcs) logged four earthquakes in Mt. Any change of direction is marked with arrows of the same color and similar design. This interpretation was based on similar earthquake clusters manifested prior to the August 10, 1996 phreatic explosion from the active summit crater of the volcano.

The local authorities rescued 17 others, including 10 Belgians, another British climber and six Filipinos while Edwin Ematong, a member of the Negros Mountaineering Club Inc. and who, along with his cousin Neil Perez, guided the British Nationals survived this eruption. Sulfur dioxide (SO2) gas emission from the summit crater on Saturday reached an average of 1,130 tonnes/day, the highest recorded this year, following a trend since June 2020 of emissions higher than background levels of 300 tonnes/day, the advisory added. In the 8 days from August 23 to September 1, 257 volcanic earthquakes were recorded. Many suffered from a respiratory illness with cough and flu-like symptoms. One of the rescued Belgians, Caroline Verlinde, said she and her group were about to leave a site near the crater rim when suddenly the volcano ejected ash, stones and hot gas. On March 29 at 6:20 pm, Kanlaon erupted for 12 minutes which produced a volcanic plume 1,500 m (4,900 ft) above the crater and a "booming sound" was heard in some barangays near the volcano.

Epicenters of the recorded quakes were clustered at the north-west slope which may indicate movement of an active local fault at the slope induced by pressure beneath the volcano.
