One Ilocos Sur



 The name of the festival in the past is Kannawidan which means "tawid" or in translation is the tradition, culture and legacy. It establishes the lives of our ancestors in our province during the spanish times. But when Gov. Jerry Singson had elected he renames the Kannawidan Festival into Ilocos Sur Festival. 

As the celebration of the Ilocos Sur Festival in the previous years the name only changed but the celebrations and activities never changed. The pasabog that I want during the festival is when they are inviting our idols who will came from their own province travel just to perform. It is so called concert or the term Illumina Festival, it's the concert for those famous singer and many ilocano's will travel from the different places in ilocos just to watch them perform. There is also trade fair every year, the municipalities at the ilocos are given chances to have their own booths.

The Ilocos Sur Festival in the Philippines is an exciting cultural celebration held annually. It brings locals and tourists together for several days of diverse activities. The lively street parade is a highlight, featuring colorful floats and traditional costumes that showcase the historical and cultural significance of Ilocos Sur. Traditional music and dance play a key role, highlighting the unique rhythms and movements indigenous to the region, preserving Ilocano cultural identity. The festival also emphasizes local cuisine, allowing visitors to enjoy the distinct flavors of Ilocano dishes and supporting regional economic growth. Additionally, it provides a platform for local artisans to showcase their traditional crafts, fostering a sense of community pride and shared identity. Overall, the Ilocos Sur Festival stands as a vibrant celebration, entertaining and educating attendees about the rich heritage of the region.
