Regardless of the season, Iloilo never fails to captivate both visitors and residents. However, the Dinagyang Festival—a cultural event in Iloilo City that takes place every year on the fourth Sunday of January—is what truly sets January apart as the best month.
The Dinagyang is a major Philippine celebration that draws over one million people annually, both from the Philippines and beyond the world. This year, from January 12 to the 28th, 2024 cxperts joins Iloilo for the first time as it pays a grand tribute to the beloved Señor Sto Niño.
The Iloilo Dinagyang Festival is more than an annual event; it’s an experience. Recently clinching the Aliwan 2023 title, “Dinagyang” is true to its meaning — “merrymaking,” – a time to celebrate and give thanks for the year that was.
This year, cxperts joins its first Dinagyang experience through a symphony of drums and dancing.
The global team of cxperts proudly joins Iloilo in their appreciation for the venerated Señor Sto. Niño. “Pagdayaw kay Senor Sto. Niño, Padayaw sang mga Ilonggo!” or “Praise to Señor Sto. Niño, dance of the Ilonggos!” is 2024’s theme for This Dinayang’s event.
Come join cxperts and the thousands for landmark activities such as the Miss Iloilo Coronation Night, Iloilo Arts and Music Festival, Motorcade of the Señ Santo Niño de Cebu, Dinagyang Food Festival, the Fluvial and Solemng Foot Process, and the Dinagyang ILOmination Streetdance (among many other festivities).
“Hala Bira, Iloilo!” Let the celebrations begin!
