Damili Festival

Posted on September 12, 2006

Held every Christmas time, the town of San Nicolas, Ilocos Norte celebrates the Damili Festival to acknowledge the main source of their livelihood: Pottery.

The people of San Nicolas doesn’t only utilize an ordinary clay in making pots. They use the red variety they call, Damili which is abundant in the Ilocos region. Aside from pots, the red clay is also being used to create the beautiful damili tiles used as flooring for various structures like the Fort Ilocandia Casino and Hotel, Laoag International Airport, and the Marcos Mansion.
