During the awarding ceremony of Dinagyang Festival, the two winning tribes (Tribu Kahiilwayan winner of Kasadyahan Contest and Tribu Ilonganon winner of ATI contest) were invited by an official of the Manila Broadcasting Company, to officially represent the Dinagyang Festival in the Aliwan Fiesta 2007 slated on April 2007 in Manila.
Dinagyang is given privilege by the Aliwan Fiesta, as the only festival that will showcase two winning tribes.
I hope also to see more contigents from Iloilo Province aside the two from Dinagyang Festival. The Tultugan Festival of Maasin, Iloilo which was included in top 10 (7th place) performer of Aliwan Fiesta, and the Pintados de Pasi of Passi City, Iloilo which always on the top 3 spot since joining the festival 3 years ago.

go philippine festivals…
tasyo » March 15th, 2007 at 11:24 am
it’s so amazing to witness a showcase of various festivals in the philippines.
what’s not good is that losers tend to reject judges’ decisions and create their own stories (like the lutong-macao thing, and boasting that thye’re better than the proclaimed winners).
do we really have to put others down if we do not make it?

I have been bitten by the travel bug and has been doing a lot of traveling. There is a website which has helped me a lot - http://www.hoparound.net. It gives you an excellent listing of fiestas, where and when it is held. What’s great is that you will also see a list of micro tourism service providers per location. So you can plan your trip to the fiesta you want to visit and arrange for the services you would need during your stay even before your leave your place by using the internet.

The winning tribes in this year’s Dinagyang competition Tribu Ilonganon of Jalandoni Memorial National High School and Tribu Kahilwayan of the Sta. Barbara National Comprehensive High School are all set for the Aliwan Fiesta in Manila.
They are going to have a send off party this Friiday at Iloilo Freedom Grandstand. The street leading to the grandstand will be closed for the said send off party.
Iloilo will also field a giant float made of indigenous materials carrying a “big warrior” in full Dinagyang costume of the native Atis during Aliwan Fiesta.
Cara Jeanne Sullano will vie for the Reyna ng Aliwan Beauty Contest.
Dinagyang souvenir items, like Dagoy key chains, Ilonggo delicacies, T-shirts and others, will be exhibited for sale at the Aliwan Bazaar.
Hala Bira Iloilo!

let’s see if who’ll give a play ground demonstration! i saw your performance on youtube and all i can say is that, it’s your team who gives playground demonstration not ours! and we’re not lying because our statements can be proved by the videos in youtube, so better yet, just give it your best shot and we’ll give ours! enough said!

marvin_kim » April 21st, 2007 at 10:10 pm
kasi robert, ganito yun, nai-inggit lang ang mga yan dahil di nila matanggap na mas flexible at mas magaling pang sumayaw ang mga bakla kesa sa kanila…as simple as that!
come to think of it, there’s nothing wrong if gays are performing for a dance… im sure sa ibang festivals maraming baklang sumasali, so why bother?!? sa sinulog meron din yan no! hello! this is reality people! we better get used to it! only idiots believe otherwise! and sad to say, we are not one of those idiots!
and sa lahat ng mga festivals, 75% ng mga choreographer dun eh bakla! dahil ang mga bakla ang may pinaka artistic instinct sa lahat when it comes to dancing!!
no offense meant!
PEACE!
dale nichole » April 22nd, 2007 at 12:02 am
hello mga pipz!!!
paalala lang po!kailan man ay hindi naging playground ang sinulog festival,specially the dance of LUMAD BASAKANON…

Ingit lang kayo,sinlug is still the best!!!Try to compare your dance PLSSSSS!!!!!!!
dale nichole » April 22nd, 2007 at 12:16 am

hello PLEX of iloilo…wag naman ganyan,i have read your comments of aliwan 2006,remember plex that our lives has ups and downs…and that means,in every competation theres a winner and theres a loser,we should accept the fact that the iloilo contengent has been defeated by the other contengents such as the lumad basakanon of cebu city…
And you should accept that there are better than the iloilo…that is all i can say,and i do believe that it is not the cebu city who has started this kind of exchanging bad comments and suggestion towards the other,as what i have observe,it is the deffeated contengent who started this,who cannot accept the reality
of true competation…
sports lang tayo lahat…
OKEY…..

i agree to what you’ve said..magaling naman ang mga bakla na sumayaw..mas flexible din silang sumayaw..and about sa choreographer,karamihan din mga bakla eh,kaseh,magaling ang mga bakla na bumuo ng mga steps(magchoreograph)..
about sa pagsali ng mga bakla,they have the freedom to join,as long as they know how to dance..everybody can join a compit.kahit sino kapa…..

to dali_oms…
jokes are half meant… don’t be too rude darling… it’s not pleasing even if it was only a joke, and besides, how could DINAGYANG survive for almost 40 years? we’re not even inviting other performers… it simply shows that we can stand also alone… di ba, some of them said that Sinulog couldn’t prosper well without the out of town contingents… someone said that… i forgot his username here… sabi nya, hindi daw ganun ka lively ang sinulog kasi parang kulang kapag walang OTC..

Every contingent did their best… Congratulations!!!
Anyhow, Lumad Basakanon of Cebu City has proven once again their mastery of their crafts… Sa Sinulog Festival pa nga lang sa Cebu, makita nga lang ng crowd sa grandstand na nakapasok na sa entrance ang Lumads, naghihiyawan na…
No wonder na kung sila na ang nagpe-perform, palakpak at hiyawan na ang maririnig mo even before the instrumentalist beat their drums until the dancers went out of the sports center…
Iba talaga ang Lumads…
Congratulations to all the choreographers, contingents, organizers of Aliwan and for everybody who took part in the event…
Mabuhay Tayo, PILIPINO!

marvin_kim » May 1st, 2007 at 12:15 pm
well… as what they are bragging that they are the best (KUNO!! i know the reason why they won anyway.. but i won’t tell it here… baka sumama pa loob nila… hay buhay… PULITIKA… excuses nothing even if its just a mere festival.. Aliwan is not the best, im telling you!)..
Champion (daw… na hindi naman! yuck! perfect recyclist… mga basurero ng choreography!) - sinulog
1st runner up - dinagyang festival
2nd runner up - alikaraw festival (this tribe should have been the winner! i liked their performance a lot!) better watch this in youtube to know what i mean…
overall, walang kwenta ang aliwan… konti lang ang mga nanood… wala ngang tremendous applause sa sinulog eh.. mas maingay pa ang cheer sa alikaraw! im not lying because i was there in quirino grandstand… di ko lang alam sa aliw theater… pero all i can say is, hindi talaga deserving ang sinulog PARA SA AKIN!! yun lang…

I witnessed the Aliwan 2007. Surely, the Sinulog contingent was the best. They were precise, choreography is perfect and entertaining. Although Dinagyang gave a close shot.
I am not a cebuano but from Pasig City.
We must be proud that we have so many festivals in the country.

Agree, mas magaling ang Tribu Alikaraw compared sa Lumad Basakanon. Hope next year may bago silang choreography na ipapakita.

To Jeff,
What do you expect in a performance? Surely, they aim for a perfect choreography. You are a typical Pinoy with crab mentality. Move on!
Ronnie
lei » May 4th, 2007 at 4:16 pm
xempre ang gagawin nilang choreography eh yung related sa festival nila,alangan naman na papalitan nila..revival pwede,,kaya tanggapin nalang..better do your best next time..okei..no hurt feelings
Spyder » May 4th, 2007 at 11:29 pm
wow congratz s nanalo… but ganda tlga ng ilonganon ganda ng movements at vry active p sila!!! Syng d nadala ung Tribu Kahilwayan! kung dinala lng nila ung lahat ng props at ung music nila n maganda d dinala… mas maganda p ung performance ng Kahilwayan last Kasadyahan Festival. Nkkiyak tlga un!!! kung nkta nyo lng sana!!!
Jeff » May 5th, 2007 at 9:11 am
To Ronnie,
That was my observation and it is not a crab metality. Meron ba akong sinabing masama sa Sinulog?
jazz_me » May 5th, 2007 at 1:25 pm
Well…
Lei and spyder were both right!!!
Agree naman ako sa mga sinabi nu guys but take note lei na
unfair yun para sa iba wala naman akong ibig sabihin kundi
concern lng…
jazz_me » May 5th, 2007 at 1:32 pm
Pero hindi naman ibig sabihin nun kawawa ang mga talo…
Pagkakataon lng ang nagdekta…

well aliwan festival is one of the greatest event in the phil. history coz it showcase the talents of the diff. region… it only shows that filipino is very active in terms of tourist attraction….
Ronnie » May 5th, 2007 at 9:16 pm
To Jeff,
You can always defend yourself and I don’t have to defend sinulog here because in the first place I am not a Cebuano and i don’t have any allegiance to that city or province.
Look at what you commented. You agreed to the comments posted by that person named Jasper…you guys personify the typical Pinoy, with crab mentality who does not develop nor grow and tend to harbor or harp the negativity instead of the success. You can make suggestions on how to improve but not to put down the performance of others.
As I said, no matter what you say, you are a crab!!!!
sonicwavette » May 6th, 2007 at 1:24 am
Marvin_Kim, I think it’s UNFAIR for you to say that politics even has something to do with it. It’s not even well thought. Pray, do tell, my darling, specifically, what’s this PULITIKA brouhaha you’re insinuating? don’t say that “baka sumama ang loob nila” BRING IT ON, GIRL! LUMAD is the BEST because they are NUMBER ONE. what part of that didn’t you understand? Be fair, grandma! Every member of Lumad gave their best, their sweat, life, blood, tears for this and you just sit there in your cozy little chair in front of your computer while they were there representing MY CEBU, sacrificing everything just to be the best, and I’m sure the contingents from your hometown did the same. But there must be somebody who’s best, and the second best, and we all know who they are.
oh, here’s a suggestion: why don’t you join your troops to aliwan next year? Maybe with your presence and expertise, you guys will finally bag the first prize? How about that, sweetiepie?

FYI:
sa mga hindi marunong kumilatis ng costume dyan!
basic wear ang skin toned na body stocking ng lumad …. kaya similar ang kulay sa last year at this year (kulay ng balat).
pero sa mga accessories, you are completely wrong kapag sinasabi nyong recycled.
mag-aral naman kayong kumilatis ng costume.
nakakaawa naman kayo…. kumakahol sa hangin….

kung tutuusin, hindi pa impressive ang record ng lumad sa aliwan.
dalawang beses pa lang sumali, at saka dalawang beses pa lang nanalo.
hindi tulad ng iba diyan, minsan lang nanalo sa kadaming beses na sumali.

darling, the real winner should have been alikaraw! NA REVERSE YUNG RESULTA!? second pa ring ang ILONGANON at 3rd lang ang sinulog!! GET THE PICTURE?!?!? why its unfair to say politics is involve?! eh totoo naman talaga! i’ll tell you this, why would you ask for judges in a competition if you’re not going to impose that results they made?!? aber?!? THE ORGANIZERS HAVE THE MONOPOLY OF THE RESULTS!! BETTER ASK THEM PERSONALLY TO KNOW WHAT I MEAN! PERYA NA ANG ALIWAN DAHIL SUMALI NA ANG SINULOG. AND ITS TRUE, SOME OF THE RULES OF SINULOG WERE CARRIED TO ALIWAN, SO ,MAS FIITING YUNG ALIWAN SA MGA SINULOG CONTINGENTS AS COMPARED TO OTHERS LIKE HERE IN MANILA AND OTHER PARTS OF LUZON. BAKIT KASI, 5 MINUTES LANG?!? EH MAHIHIRAPAN TALAGA MAG ADJUST ANG IBANG FESTIVALS DAHIL (IF IM NOT MISTAKEN) YUNG HALOS LAHAT SA KANILA EH MORE THAN 5 MINUTES ANG PRESENTATION?!? DI BA?!? AND LOOK, NI HINDI MAN LANG NAG IBA ANG CHOREOGRAPHY NG LUMAD AS COMPARED TO LAST YEAR. SA COSTUME?!? DARLING, DINAGDAGAN NYO LANG ANG COSTUME NYO NG BAHAG AT CHALECO. HUWAG KANG MAGSINUNGALING DAHIL YUN PA RIN ANG GINAMIT NYO LAST YEAR!
basta ang masasabi ko lang, BASURERO NG CHOREOGRAPHY. walang ka dating dating ang performance nyo! na bore ako and not only me but other spectators as well…
ruben » May 8th, 2007 at 2:52 pm
^^^ MAYBE…the winner should have been ALIKARAW. hehe.
di pa masyadong kilala ngunit ganunpaman
they have tried their very best and as a newbie,
mind you, they got the 3rd place in this competition.
and at least nasa linya na sila ngayon ng mga winners
kahit underdog in the sense that DINAGYANG and
SINULOG ay matagal ng kilala at point factor na kasi yun.
sa lahat ng winners…congratulations!

Dinagyang is still my favorite. They are well-choreographed. I witnessed the celebration when I went to Iloilo City last January. Competition is fierce, as the performers strut their stuff on the city streets, shaking and moving in time to the furious drumbeats. The mayhem is infectious – and fun.
I also watched them during Aliwan Fiesta, they are great!
marvin_kim » May 9th, 2007 at 9:42 am
ang yabang naman ng dating na 3rd best festival ang sinulog sa world?!? may proof ka ba?!? paki post nga ng article na nagsasabi kayo ang 3rd best in the world. ni hindi nga kagandahan yang festival nyo. dependent pa sa out of town contingents. tapos, sasabihin pa nilang parang perya yung sa ibang contingents. bat pa kayo nang invite kung lalaitin nyo yung ibang contingents?!?
dale nichole:
i don’t need to use a microscope para kilatisin ang costume ng lumad dahil malayo pa lang, alam ko na nang ni recycle nyo lang ang costume nyo. anong problema sa t back?!? hindi recylce yun dahil hindi mo ba alam na ganun ang costume talaga ng mga ati?!? duh! common sense. hindi yun trademark (katulad ng sinasabi nyong trademark ng sinulog yang tights na may tattoo), kundi nasa umpisa pa yan! the audience love you?!? give me a break! you’re making me laugh really hard darling! you’re delirious! feeling mo sikat kayo?!? duh!?!? wake up darling. nanaginip ka yata. i wonder why ILONGANON performed at SM MALL OF ASIA after aliwan and basakanon didn’t?!? sino klaya ang crowd favorite?!? hellouer?!? nanaginip ka pa rin yata! at bakit ako maiingit sa inyo?!? the hell icare with your money. nauubos din yan. pero ang satisfaction ng tao eh hindi. at dun hindi nagmimintis ang DINAGYANG as comapred to you. nakakaantok ang performance. hay… masyadong play safe anf lumad. wala. walang pinagkaiba. kahit saan ka mag punta… reapeat performance lang. hay… booooorrrrrriiiiiinnnnnnnnggggggggg!!!
BASURERO NG CHOREOGRAPHY! may choreographer pa ba kayo?!? tsk tsk tsk! i pity him or her… wala na ba siyang ibang alam?!? CHANGE IS CONSTANT even in a dance.

observer » May 9th, 2007 at 8:12 pm
Zup people..I watch aliwan last april 28..Maybe Tribu alikaraw did not make it to top it is because their performance is very much influence by the sinulog..You know what i mean, if you able to watch sinulog over the years..Like for ex. same music specially the buggle part and the ritual thing.As you can see the set up of instruments is very much pattern by the sinulog.I think hilongos was so influence by the cebuanos causing their defeat,maybe next time they will have an identity on their own.. dont get me wrong about this but thats the true..So originality is a big question…Nevertheless its a wonderful performance though,plus very very colorful costumes..

ere, ako ba nag umpisa ng away?!? uhm sorry but that accusation has neither bases nor grounds. kaya nga comments ang nakalagay dito kasi, comments lang ang nilalagay dito.
comments lang naman ang nilalagay ko dito, but i don’t know, kasi may reply sa comment and then somebody started using words below the belt, and to retaliate back, i have to use such words also, and mind you, hindi ako nang aano hangga’t hindi ako pino provoke, sino ba nang provoke ng una? ako ba?
may nang una kasi mag comment ng hindi maganda, so, since it hurt my ego so much (he talked about gays being dancers), dapat lang na i defend ko ang point ko. and looked, before i post my comments here, wala akong pinatatamaang significant persona.
and, how true is this, nakasali na pala way back before ang sinulog?!? thru sinanduloy or correct me, if, iba yung festival na ni represent nila?!? kasi, kung sinulog yung ni represent nila, natalo sila. 3rd daw sila eh, tapos, hindi na sila sumali ulit. correct me if im wrong ha.
P.S.
ayer, hindi ako tanga, sorry but i won’t stoop down to your level of befouled manners, yun, tanga ang gumagawa nun hindi yung mga intelehente. and mind you, could you manage to get an average of 1.16 or 1.23?!? kasi, hindi naman ako makakakuha ng ganung average if tanga ako, so SORRY, HINDI AKO TANGA! heaven forbid, wag sanang bumalik ang karma sa mga pinagsasabi mo. and since you started this below of the belt words, bring it on babe! hindi kita uurungan!

winnie » May 22nd, 2007 at 8:14 pm
marvin kim,
ok lang yan kahit pa natalo nang paulitulit ang dinagyang. it is not the money or who ever wins the contest. what matter most is the satisfaction of entertainment for all.. even foreigners can tell who’s their favorite.. anyway, we all know that dinagyang can stand on its own kahit wala yang aliwan.. truly, dinagyang need not have to prove themselves to anyone because “dinagyang/kasadyahan”, has already established itself globally.. kaya nga (given privilege) lagi ang pagsali sa aliwan/the pleasure of aliwan to have the “dinagyang” participation. alam mo kasi, “dinagyang” is a crowd drawer and entertainer. kaya nga, kahit di pa sumali ng dinagyang next year it’s fine with me. instead, what “dinagyang needs to focus on, is to perform outside the country like the place of europe or america. sa pagkkalam ko kasi, ang “dinagyang/kasadyahan” ay naka perform na sa ibat ibang bansa like sa japan, singgapore, malaysia, nepal, etc. take note! lahat ng yan invitation….
kaya nga, you don’t need to feel insecure or have pity on them. inaasar ka lang ng mga yan. alam naman natin na pag bisaya trademark na ang palaban kaya relax kalang; control yourself dear. pero kung saan ka masaya suportahan taka ya….
oo nga pala nagkaroon ng request performance ang dinagyang nang magkaroon ng international convention sa iloilo.
marvin_kim » May 22nd, 2007 at 8:29 pm
alam mo winnie, im starting to feel pity over ayer… wala na kasing ibang magawa at name mersonal na.. gosh, i never wondered why, wala nga palang breeding ang mga bisaya. i could generalize it by the way they comment here. ahem, sorry kung hindi ganun ga bastos kasi, kami lang naman yung mga lovable people in the philippines.
tama ka nga, dinagyang had performed several outside the country. it was tribu bola-bola of iloilo national high school that gave way for dinagyang to be recognized in the whole world. after them, naging sunud-sunod na ang invitation sa dinagyang to perform everywhere. sana, sa europe naman sila mag perform. ^_^

alam nyo, hindi nakareach yung dinagyang sa standards ng sinulog dahil wala silang basehan sa kanilang festival… Bakit nga ba na create ang dinagyang? mag historical sgnificance bah? bakit may Sto. Nino bah? doon ba nanggaling ang Sto. Nino? diba sa cebu yun? could somebody tell me? I think na mas may relevance yata ang sinulog…

SUGBOANON,
If you dont know kung anu talaga ang history at trademark ng dinagyang better shut-up!!!!!also to others you dont know whats the relevance? If cebuanos(refered) are really dancing for sto. nino bakit ganyan kayo makaasal, or really pretending to survive and this cool stuff for your own goods…mag-research kayo, and for your information ilongos are know for “dagyang” a celebration for the coming of Senior Sto. Nino so they can do whatever they want as they celebration goes…so the unmeningful steps that you are saying are the steps which recognizes sto. nino…:-) wala akong ibig sabihin nagpapaliwanag lng brothers and sisters!!!

did you know that at least two of the judges in the aliwan festival (2006 and 2007) were either consultants or choreographers of the sinulog festival specifically the lumad basakanon tribe? somthing fishy there, don’t you think?

and ace durano had something to do with it as well. i watched the festival and i can truly say that the most applauded and most watched festival even during practice sessions is the dinagyang festival. one time may concert nga ang side a malapit sa practice area. the concert stopped for a while because the dinagyang tribe practiced and people went flocking to the practice area.

I just want to clear, Sinulog Mardi Gras was started only in 1980 while Dinagyang Festival was started in 1968. Iloilo Ati-atihan was the original name of the festival and it was later rename in 1977 as Dinagyang Festival to differentiate it from that of Kalibo Ati-atihan Festival.
In 1974, the Iloilo Ati-atihan (Dinagyang Festival) played a vital role in the “Operation Balikbayan” program of the Department of Tourism (then Ministry of Tourism) by providing visitors with a unique form of cultural entertainment.
The successful yearly celebrations of Dinagyang Festival, the former First Lady Imelda Marcos encourage other Cities, Towns and Provinces to have their on own distinct festival. Kaya nagkaroon ng Sinulog, Masscara and other festivals ang bawat lugar because of the success of Dinagyang Festival to attract Tourist.
Hindi ipagkakaila na ang Dinagyang ang naging benchmark ng lahat ng Festivals sa buong bansa.
Dinagyang also give respect sa Ati-atihan festival dahil ito ang pinaka-unang Festival sa buong bansa (more than 500 years na ang Ati-atihan).

SUGBOANON,
That was unfair comments sa Dinagyang Festival. You were stubbornly unreceptive sa Dinagyang Festival. Anong akala mo sa Ilongo basta-basta gagawa na lang ng Festival na walang basehan? You better refrain from commenting.

dinagyang has all the reasons in the world to be proud. it has performed in many parts of asia and has been invited to perform many many many times. and it is almost 40 years old. and it is the ONLY festival in the philippines supported by the UNITED NATIONS. and until today, it i
