iloilo is indeed a good festival so to speak kasi they have a good choreography but watch out for the Sinulog Festival and other festivals from Mindanao na hindi pa nakikita ang style nila. You never knw how good the Mindanaoan festivals are and very relevant ang rituals nila. YOu havent seen festivals like: LANZONES FEST. of Camiguin, BONOK BONOK of SUrigao City, DIANDI FEST. of Iligan City, and other places specially in the NORTHERN MINDANAO which have really good contingents and very unique rituals which they also mix with the pop culture these days. THERE ARE STILL FESTIVALS IN MINDANAO NA NANANAHIMIK LANG BECOZ OF BUDGET CONSTRAINTS……..
to mention how good Mindanao is, we only represent one contingent per FEstival. How much more kung makikita nyo lahat ng contingents from Northern Mindanao to South. We showcase different ethnic tribes and rituals. Not to mention the perennial champions of the Sinulog festival which is the TANGUB CITY DALIT FESTIVAL, the ever top 5 placed SURIGAO CITY, PLACER-SURIGAO, contigents from AGUSAN DEL NORTE, MISAMIS ORIENTAL, CAMIGUIN-LANZONES FEST., BUKIDNON-KAAMULAN FEST., DIANDI FEST.-ILIGAN CITY. HUDYAKA SA KADAGATAN-KAUSWAGAN LANAO NORTE, HUDYAKA SA KINHASON-BACOLOD LANAO NORTE, SAGINGAN FEST.-TUBOD LANAO NORTE, OZAMIS COTTA- OZAMIS CITY. i cant mention them all but the very best are here….
