The Iloilo Provincial Government brings you the Kasadyahan sa Kabanwahanan 2024 – the Fun, Foodie, Friendly Festival of Festivals which showcases vibrant tourism and offers a display window into the soul of the province of Iloilo.
The province is hosting for the first time the Kasadyahan sa Kabanwahanan which is “the festival of festivals” and reflects the new tourism slogan of the province which is “Fun, Foodie, Friendly Iloilo Province.”
It will feature the festivals of nine competing municipalities such as the Kaing Festival of Leon, Kasag Festival of Banate, Saad Festival of Leganes, Katagman Festival of Oton, Tultugan Festival of Maasin, Banaag Festival of Anilao, Cry of Jelicuon Festival of New Lucena, Hirinugyaw-Suguidanonay of Calinog, and Pantat Festival of Zarraga.
“We try to present something new by adjusting and redefining the identity of the Kasadyahan sa Kabanwahanan 2024 as a showroom of the festivals of our municipalities. We would like this to be our F5 – Fun, Foodie, Friendly Festival of Festivals,” according to Gov. Arthur Defensor Jr.
Defensor said the KsK is also the provincial government’s “solemn offering to the patron of the Dinagyang Festival.”
“Dinagyang is rooted in history and our religion. We have our patron Sto. Niño and we have the origins of our people here in Panay. But the Kasadyahan sa Kabanwahanan is a continuing past – it is our continuing past reflected in the parade and performances of our tribe. That is our solemn offering to the patron of the Dinagyang Festival,” he said.
“We want you to enjoy the Dinagyang Festival 2024 together with the Kasadyahan sa Kabanwahanan. We are hoping that with this, we will be able to strengthen the Dinagyang Festival and add another dimension to the overall merrymaking,” he added.
