The Libod Sayaw Festival 2018 Street Dancing was held around the municipality’s streets around three in afternoon, while the Libod Sayaw Festival 2018 Showdown was held at the Bindoy Track and Athletic Field. For this year’s competition of the festival, only five contingents participated. Hence, the competition was concluded before the sun could set.

The colorful costumes of the Libod Sayaw Festival in Bindoy brought more color and joy to the municipality. Despite the heat of the sun of that Wednesday afternoon, the eager viewers and spectators stood still just to see the performers passing by. We lost fingercount, but there must have been thousands of people lining up along the roads. Aside from enjoying the festival dance, people who were at the street dancing had a far greater souvenir that no one could buy…a good time and tan lines.
