Tayasan Fiesta 2015 – Street Dancing
Street Dancing – Tayasan Fiesta 2015
Once again the DC Team went north to visit a municipality. We were invited to the Tayasan Fiesta 2015 by the honorable Mayor Nonong Ruperto to the week-long celebrations. One of the first Highlights was of course the Street Dance Competition. It started like announced “spot on”at 8:00 AM… Nah, we are joking…
When we arrived at 7:30 AM to get some preparation shots, there was only ONE (1) contingent could be spotted at the very far left corner of the big Tayasan Plaza. The next group arrived some when around 8:20 AM. Anyway, the Street Dancing in Tayasan started finally around 10:00 AM.
When the contingents where finally released from the covered court, the dancers put on their brightest smiles for the thousands of Tayasanos along the streets of the municipality.
Yag-Yag Festival 2015
The Yag-Yag Festival 2015 of Barangay Cangmating in Sibulan was nothing less than a huge success. The Float and Show Down winner of Buglasan 2014 demonstrated why they got the Top Spot at the Festival of Festivals last year. The DC-Team is totally undecided if the monkeys of the Pakol Festival in Sta. Catalina or the crablets of the Yag Yag Festival are their favorite.
One thing we recognized immediately when arriving in Sibulan were the bright stunning smiles of most Yag Yag Festival participants. We are not sure what the reason was but the DC Team sent the best looking photographer there, which is certainly a factor to have the ladies putting on their brightest smile… or maybe they were just laughing about him.
Pakol Festival 2015
Most Dumagueteños remember the little monkeys at the Street Dancing and Showdown of the yearly Buglasan Festival. The DC Team followed the invitation of the local tourism officer and visited the municipality in the south of Negros Oriental for the Pakol Festival 2015.

Tawo Tawo Festival 2015 – Showdown
Mr. Eli G. Manlangit – Chairman, Tawo-Tawo Festival
28th Tawo-Tawo Festival
The Tawo Tawo Festival 2015 in Bayawan City marked its 28th of its kind. The festival is certainly one of the most famous celebrations of whole Negros Island. What need to be mentioned in a very positive way is the organization. Mr. Eli G. Malangit runs a tight, well thought through, and intelligent office.
Therefore it is not surprising that the showdown as well as the street-dancing started in time. An event starting in real-world time is in the Philippines as rare as an ice-block in the Sahara.
Mr. Malangit told the Dumaguete.com team: “I can not let the children sitting and waiting in the heat for some VIPs and officials to arrive. We start in time !“.
Tawo-Tawo Festival Showdown
The Tawo-Tawo 2015 Showdown started at 10:00 am. At that point most participants were already up and practicing since hours. The sun was already burning and if anybody needed a quick breakfast, it would have been no problem to boil an egg on the cemented grounds. The opening speeches were kept pleasantly brief and the first group got ready. Nine contingents were participating. Five in the Gagmay/Junior Tawo-Tawo category, four in the Dagko/Senior Tawo-Tawo category. Following some pictures (not sorted by contingents).
Gagmay Tawo-Tawo Category
- Barangay Boyco
- Barangay Suba
- Tayawan Elementary School
- Barangay Villareal
- Bayawan East Central School
Dagko Tawo-Tawo Category
- Bayawan National High School
- Kulamboyan High School
- Barangay Poblacion

Langub Festival 2015 in Mabinay
The Langub Festival in Mabinay highlights the celebrations of the town fiesta. The word Langub originates from the local phrase for “cave”. Mabinay is well known as the cave capital of the Philippines with estimated 400 caves. 45 have been explored and seven are open to the public to visit. Thousands of spectators were lining the streets of Mabinay to watch the street dancing competition of the Langub Festival 2015. Eight competitors were showing their dances to the cheerful visitors and the watchful judges.
Many political “heavyweights” followed the invitation of Mabinay Mayor Ernie Uy to join the festival and enjoy the Showdown held at the Market. We spotted Negros Occidental Governor Alfredo Marañon Jr, Negros Oriental Rep. George Arnaiz, Dumaguete City Mayor Manuel Sagarbarria, Sibulan Mayor Maning Diputado and many councilors from different towns and cities of Negros Oriental.
