With all these learnings, I am pretty sure that you are more ready to delve
into the different concepts about the selected festivals in Luzon, Visayas and

Gifted with the breath-taking views of the sea and the inspiring sceneries
from the high lands, the Philippines is a country known as the Pearl of the Orient.
By simply beholding its beauty, one cannot help but wonder, what more does this
place offer? Simply overwhelming, you are thinking where to go next as each place
you come to visit gives you a surreal feeling of excitement. The perfectly seated
beauty of the orient comprised mainly of three large island groups, has always been
a place of religion, culture, and artistry as evident in the magnificent churches,
traditions and artistic local creations of each of the provinces in the country.
No wonder, despite the diversity of people, we still come to recollect our

similarity as we are bound by our cultural beliefs, belongingness to one another
and our traditional method of expressions reflected in our festivals and theatrical
forms.
In Luzon, one of the well celebrated festival is Pahiyas. Derived from the word
“payas” which means decoration or to decorate, this practice dates back to the 15th
century when farmers used to offer their harvests at the foot of Mount Banahaw.,
As time passed by, the farmers would bring their farm produce at the church in
honor of the town’s patron saint, St. Isidore, the Laborer. Until the time came that
the parish could not anymore accommodate the growing number of people offering
their harvest that they thought of displaying their harvests in front of their houses
and the parish priest would go around the community to bless it.
Until the late 1963, what was originally a pagan festival transformed into a
grand festival that many Filipinos know today. Each participating house would put
their agricultural harvest in front of their door steps and would also decorate it with
commercial products such as mats, bags, and abaniko. These decorations are
adorned by different colors as a symbol of gaiety and festivity.
As one of the three large island groups, Visayas is also gifted with the rich
heritage and colorful history. Their devotion and their spirit are seen on how they
decorate themselves on special occasions such as this. Notable among the many
celebrated festivals in their region is the Dinagyang. Hailed and celebrated on
January, the festival highlights the procession, religious ceremony and Ati tribe’s
dance competition. This festival traces its origin as a thanksgiving celebration in
honor of Senyor Santo Niño, the Child Jesus. This celebration is today renowned
as one of the most spectacular cultural and religious festivity.
Equally gifted Mindanao is truly blessed with its rich culture. Their
celebrations go back to their gratification for the harvest that has long provided for
their people. This festival is one among a handful of known festivals in the region.
It is said to be the pillar of their culture which brought together locals and travelers
hungry for their food, music and gracious reception.
The colorful transformations and interpretations, and even their festive and
surreal expression of belief and arts, show how creative they are in various ways
not only with their uniqueness in color, props and costume, but also in the
vividness as a canvass of rich Filipino heritage.
In the brief background indicated above, you may maximize the use of images
and photographs for the students to be guided while reading it. These images may
also activate their recognition about specific information. However, make sure to cite
these images appropriately. You may also add captions to each image to indicate its
relevance to the background being read by the students.
PAHIYAS FESTIVAL OF LUZON
Pahiyas is one among the most celebrated festivals in Luzon. People from all
across the country and even visitors from abroad, flock this place to witness the
grandiose celebration in honor of St. Isidore, the patron saint of harvest. The
celebration is rooted from the importance of rice to the place and its affinity to the
people of Lucban due to its wide range of importance in the old time and up until
today.
Pahiyas
This festivity is marked by its colorful adornment; being a visual spectacle

where houses come alive with decorations of colorful kiping (rice wafers) arranged
in layered chandeliers called arangya. 'Kipings' are made colorful by people during
this festivity. They are actually made from ground rice, water, sugar and colored
with food colorants. Kiping is an edible leaf-like wafer that can be eaten during the
fiesta, fried and coated in sugar. Several houses shape kipings into flowers,
butterflies, leaves and other unique patterns which are accented with rice panicles,
rice seedlings, fruits and vegetables. Others portray farm scenes with rice stalks
shaped as farmers and carabaos, depicting farm activities such as plowing,
harvesting, threshing and hauling among others.
Pahiyas Festival is an all-
day affair as you take your time
walking the streets to view all the
different colorful houses. While
Pahiyas Festival is mostly about
the houses, there is a procession
that is yearly celebrated where
every participating house will be
decorated according to the theme.
The highlight were the ornate
gown and costume designs made
and inspired from the harvest of
the place that is designed in a
very colorful way. For each year,
the route changes to give way for
Pahiyas Festival
other houses to participate in
decorating. It usually takes about
seven years before the procession passes by the same house again to give way for
others to join too.
The first in line in the celebration is the parade of pancit habhab carts where
the locals cover their carts with vegetables, handicrafts and other colorful materials.
It is to be followed by the parade of the floats where each piece is decorated with
kipings and fresh vegetables that are local in the place. The townsfolk do the
designs are fit to the taste of Lucban.
Additionally, other attraction in

the festival is the Parade of the
Parikitan (Gowns) where different
designers are challenged to create
pieces of beautiful dresses that
showcase the theme and spirit of
the fiesta. Men and women are
selected to wear the attires
created by designers which are
symbolic in craft and in the
materials used. Aside from it,
there is also the most awaited
parade of the carabaos, being one
of the representations of hard
work among Filipinos, and a
farmer’s best companion, as
these carabaos go along the life of
Parade of the Parikitan
farming. These animals were
given the spotlight as they walk
with their master in the streets of Lucban. Some carabaos are white in color, while
others are really dressed up with unique horns and embellishment. Last among the
line of the fiesta is the delightful parade of higantes (giants). These towering creations
bring joy and laughter to the spectators as they try to scare and chase after the
crowd.

DINAGYANG FESTIVAL OF VISAYAS

One among the notable places to visit in Visayas, Ilo-ilo is endowed with
colorful and vibrant testimonies of experience and heritage. A handful of its historic
places, creative music and religiosity, this place is where the culture-filled
Dinagyang happens. It portrays the heritage and history of the indigenous people in
honor of Senor Sto. Nino during the 4th of January, annually.
Before, the celebration was confined only at a small scale when the image of
Sto. Nino was paraded from the airport to the parish. It was years later that it grew
and patterned the celebration of Ati-atihan. This exciting festival is filled with upbeat
music, nimble dance, colorful costumes and rich culture.
During the celebration, the tribes
compete through a choreographed “warrior
dance” while being dressed in colorful
indigenous outfits. Their props include spear
and shield. Through dance forms that are
noted for its fast movements, prayers and
offerings are interpreted. The way dancers offer
their movements is visibly an influence of the
modern theatrical dance steps that focus more
on the hands. It also makes use of the
indigenous-style instruments such as drums
whose rhythms are perfectly blended with the
ethnic expressions. Dancing to the beat of live
drums, and various percussive instruments
Dinagyang Festival
while chanting their local dialect, much to the
enjoyment of the spectators, the presentation
of the dancers ends by shouting "Viva Señor Sto Niño."
One of the most amazing part in the
commemoration of their culture as the festivity
happens are the costumes which are decorative
most per se in its component details. Displayed in
the museum of Iloilo Tourism Department are fine
collections of Dinagyang outfits. Marvelous as they
are, the costumes are made of local bead works and
abaca twine. Various outfits are displayed but the
over-all impression it exudes is the ability of their
people to incorporate the primitive design with the
modern as evidently shown by the artistic use of
dyed coconut beads, woven pandan, grass skirt
with hemline of ethnic fabric, the beautiful dyeing
technique in the Philippine fiber or the raffia,
braided palm fan leaves or pandan, handloom
patadyong in stylized saya and alampay, salakot or local straw hat, hablon, dyed
woven jute, banig with coconut shells and pandan, pineapple leave twines from
Guimaras and the Manila hemp or Philippine abaca. These are only few of the
crafted designs and costumes that dancers wear during their festival not to forget
the exquisite blending of sharp neon colors that are very much alive.

Dinagyang Festival
KADAYAWAN FESTIVAL
Kadayawan, considered as
the mother of all festivals in
Mindanao has been one of the
most sought of festivals in the
country. Since a lot of effort goes
into this highly-anticipated event,
this celebration is said to be the
real pillar of the Davao culture,
bringing together locals and
travelers in memories of good
food, drinks, music, and dancing
in the streets.
Kadayawan Festival
Having derived its name from the Mandaya word “madayaw,” meaning
treasured, valuable, superior, beautiful, good, or profitable, townsfolks make use of
this time to give thanks for the season’s bountiful harvest. It was inspired from the
old practice of the ethnic tribes of Davao who would come together to celebrate
abundant crops, performing rituals that paid tribute to the nature gods.
The festival can be witnessed by anyone. The parade of floral floats, the lively
street dancing, are remarkable because people are making use of the local material
in the place such as display of fruits, vegetables, flowers, rice, and corn grains on
their mats and at the front of their houses. This cultural belief that is perceived in
their celebration is a sign of respect for the great year they’ve had. Dubbed as "the
celebration of life, a thanksgiving for the gifts of nature, the wealth of culture, and
bounties of harvest and serenity of living, the word madayaw from which it was
derived is truly lived by.
What makes it a distinct festival is that it pays tribute to the lumad, a

collective group of indigenous people living in the city.
It can be recalled that every
week of August each year, many
visitors enjoin in the place to see the
costumes in Kadayawan street party.
Indak-indak sa Kadalanan is a
street dancing competition showcasing
the rituals, dances, festivals and
folklores of Mindanao. Contingents
from different parts of Mindanao
gather in the streets of Davao to
showcase their own festivals through
dance and music. Another important
part of the festival is the Pamulak
Kadayawan or the Kadayawan in bloom where flowers and fruits are set in colorful
floats as they parade on the streets symbolizing the bountiful harvest of the place.
Not only are the dancing and parade very much anticipated but also the feast
on Davao delicacies, among other equally fun events. This shows that the city has
a great soul being made obvious by the representation of the gratitude and thankful
hands of the people living in the place and their respect to their tribes and their
deities.

Decorated with floats of fresh flowers and fruits, there are line-up of activities
that make up the festivity. One of which is the and indak-indak sa kadalanan or
street dancing in colorful costumes, parade of the tribes in the streets wearing their
tribal costumes and jewelry. The giant ‘Bounty Basket’ filled with fruits such as
pineapple, durian and banana signify Davao’s agriculture bounty and is being
represented in their festival as the costumes flaunt in the colorful designs inspired
from nature and their culture. The streets are abandoned for a few days being
decorated with fruits, flowers and vegetables. In their harbor, the native & power
boat races are being held, not to exclude the horse fight, durian festival and other
cultural minorities encounter.
If you will see, the different celebrations that we just had are a few among the
fine examples of the established cultural traditions in the country. The costumes
and the attire they wear as they echo their beliefs and traditions are only some of
the beautiful heritage they have. Not only are these festivals well celebrated and
enlivened but also most awaited in the country.
Now that you have seen what these places are very proud of, I must say, this
country where we live in is truly a blessed haven of colorful spirit. After all the
