Dinagyang 2013

The Dinagyang Festival is a celebration of folk culture, drums, and colours, which the climax hits every 3rd Sunday of January, wherein warriors painted in brown and dressed in outrageous costumes, depict the lively culture of the Ati, the Panayanons, and devotion to Senor Santo Nino.

Wow! So this is the festival that coincides with Sinulog.. I guess I'll never have the chance to shoot this. Thanks for sharing this beautiful series Lawrence Ang!

Actually, Dinagyang is held a week after Sinulog. Ati-Atihan is the one that clashes with Sinulog. You can do Sinulog followed by Dinagyang. It is much less crowded, and safer as well. And there is now a direct flight SIN - ILO !

While the main Dinagyang performances were held on Sunday, there was the Kasadyahan Parade on Saturday which is just as colourful, and more jovial in nature.
