SURE ILOCOS SUR!!
It is already a spectacle to
every place here in the Philippines to have their festivals. Festivals that
will express or show their culture, history, practices and also their
tradition. For example the Panagbenga festival in Baguio City, Bangus festival
in Dagupan, Logganisa festival in Vigan and many more. But here in Ilocos Sur,
we have the very famous KANNAWIDAN YLOCOS FESTIVAL.
This
year is now the 8th edition, showcasing the pride and guts of ilocanos
pertaining to heritage conservation and culture preservation. In the soul of
every Ilocanos are the festivities which will attract their hearts to embrace
the true essence of being a proud individual. It gives us a glimpse of how was
the life before and how shall we face it today.
Kannawidan
shows the culture of every Ilocanos. The celebration started with a mass (Misa
Konselebrada ) and also a procession
with the saints from the different municipalities in Ilocos Sur. One of the
major highlight of the festival is the Saniata ti Ilocos Sur Pageant,
showcasing the beauty and intelligence of Ilocanos. Trade fair which shows the
OTOP of entire Ilocos Sur, Fashion show which displays the pride of Ilocos
Sur’s Abel Iloco, exhibit, OPAG pinaka and livestock pinaka contest, traditional
games like the rodeo. Many TV personalities also came to Ilocos Sur to
celebrate with us just like Janno Gibbs, Xian Lim, Manolo and many more. One of
the showtime host, Teddy Corpuz also rock the Ilocanos.
All these subsidize to the upgrade and progress of Iloco cultural heritage thereby enriching it to world class showground. May this festivity inspire all Ilocanos to preserve and promote the beauty of Ilocanos.
