KANNAWIDAN

Everybody in the house talks about it

People set their dates to go and see it.

It is KANNAWIDAN.

Kannawidan Ylocos Festival is the time for the Ilocanos to show what they’ve got. It showcases the North’s culture especially to the host province—Ilocos Sur. Thus, it portrays the province’s history way back 1570s. This feast focused most on the Industrial and Agricultural living of the northern people. In here, we can see the lively gardens, products of the municipalities who joined, artworks created from indigenous materials, furniture, sculptures, and many more.

As years pass by, the government of Ilocos Sur has put greater efforts in celebrating the Kannawidan; and for this year, they thought of recreation activities during the night wherein tourists and even Ilocanos can enjoy, such as live bands, exhibit of Philippine folk dances, etc.

Spectacle of the Ilocanos’ nobility is Kannawidan. So, let us support it together with its goals.
