I can literally hear drumbeats at night. This city of gentle people will go frenzy with parties and street-dancing. Currently based in Iloilo, the city of Dinagyang festival.
Just a little sleep and my hometown Cebu, will also have the Sinulog. Likewise, Kalibo will continue their centuries-old Ati-Atihan Festival. What a great way to start the year.
Never mind the walking, the heat and pressing with other people, visual stimulation and the drumbeats can make up for it.
Maybe some of you will be attending one of these festivals. Mabuhay Magazine features Cebu, Iloilo and Kalibo this month. No, we didn’t talk about the festivals per se but we offer things that you can do when you are in town.
I wrote the articles for Kalibo and Iloilo while Jude Bacalso scribed Cebu.
Kalibo
And for Iloilo
If you happen to fly via Philippine Airlines, do check them out. Hope it can help you in your trip.
I’ll be in Kalibo and of course,Dinagyang. Are you attending any of these festivals? Hope to bump with you! 🙂
