Masskara Festival 2006 Schedule
Posted by on September 18, 2006
Kari na sa Bacolod, magdala sang maskara, kag magsinadya kita! (Come to Bacolod, bring your masks, and we’ll have some fun!)
This is the usual chant that you can hear from the Ilonggo people of Bacolod City, Philippines. Talk about parties and they know how to do it, Ilonggo-style. Streets will be closed for vehicles, large boomboxes will be placed on the streets. Non-stop dancing day in and day out. On the other end of the street is a wide array of foods and booze, while on the other end of line is the fairground and carnival for the young and young-at-hearts.
And who doesn’t love the Masskara Festival?
The Philippines’s most colorful festival is set to take centerstage once again on October 20-22, 2006 during the three-day street-dancing competitions. Aside from these, there are also other activities lined up until the grand highlights of the festival.
