Discover more fun sa Kannawidan!



The festival being held in Vigan City, Ilocos Sur, is known as the Kannawidan Ylocos Festival and is held to mark the anniversary of the creation of the province of Ilocos Sur on February 3, 1818. This celebration features the best Ilocano cuisine, native performances, and religious rites. The festival has created many initiatives to highlight the diversity of Ilocos Sur's culture and heritage.

Ilocos Sur has a unique culture and a rich heritage that should be conserved for future generations because it has been noted that many of these customs, songs, dances, and other aspects of Ilocano culture are unfamiliar to younger generations. Ilocos Sur's province administration created a festival to celebrate these customs and cultures and draw both domestic and international tourists. Numerous local stores and sellers are growing as a result of the festival and the influx of tourists who come to Ilocos Sur to take part in the wonderful celebration. Many people want to test out the products being sold by these businesses.

Overall, I think the Kannawidan Festival is very important, beneficial, and dear to the hearts of many Ilocano people. It delves deeply into our culture and serves as a constant reminder of our origins and those of our people. The festival is the ideal opportunity to experience our culture and have fun with loved ones. And for many tourists, it's a wonderful opportunity to discover more about the origins and cultures of others. Ultimately, a wonderful tradition; it is true that it’s more fun sa Kannawidan.

Longganisa Festival!

  The Longganisa Festival is typically observed in Vigan City on January 22 of every year, just a few days before the Vigan City Fiesta on January 25. If I were to describe the beauty of the Festival Its beauty isn't just found in the glamorous performances of the contestants. Nor the efforts of the program directors to provide a good show for all. But I also think that the people assembling to watch this magnificent show adds to its beauty. to buy locally produced food and to support the contenders. It is encouraging to see people coming together to celebrate a festival that has been going on for a long time. Because of our collective fear of contracting the pandemic, none of us were able to fully enjoy the festival. But now that we can all go outside without having to be afraid, I have to admit that I can call this experience beautiful. REFERENCES: Angela Marie Aurellado, January 22, 2023. Photo edited in canva.
