After a great performance during the Showdown, the eight contingents had a short lunchbreak before they started at 1:30 pm to parade through the streets of Bayawan City for the Tawo Tawo Festival 2016 Street Dancing competition.
The Tawo-Tawo Festival 2016 Showdown was scheduled for 8:00 am. the 8 contingents of the Tawo-Tawo Festival Showdown 2016 brought us very fast into a cheery mood and we had, like each year a blast. Here some impressions of the showdown.
The Langub Festival 2016 street dancing competition in Mabinay was once again the highlight of the fiesta celebrations in the cave-capital of the Philippines.
The Little Big Town of Jimalalud certainly knows how to throw great fiesta. A week of celebrations highlighted in the Sinolog sa Jimalalud Street Dancing. The streets of the municipality where filled with excited spectators cheers on the hundreds of dancers from all participating contingents.
The Sandurot Festival 2015 came to its peak with the Street Dancing parade through the streets of Dumaguete City and the Showdown right after on the stage at Quezon Park.
The weather god was once again with Dumaguete and Negros Oriental during the Street Dancing Parade of the Buglasan Festival 2015.
Sinulog Sa Tanjay
The Sinulog sa Tanjay 2015 Street Dancing and Showdown was the highlight of the celebrations. 12 participants showed their interpretation of Tanjays history in colorful costumes.
Overall the Wayboga Festival 2015 in Amlan was a successful day of celebrating the 6th Anniversary of the smoke-free municipality. We met fantastic people and gathered a lot of information which we will publish soon on our Amlan section of Dumaguete.com
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.
The City of Guihulngan celebrates Guihulugan Festival 2015 (<– a real tongue twister for foreign tourists and expats) with a colorful street dancing parade followed by a not less entertaining showdown in the covered court. Five contestants were participating. All of them did an outstanding job. Following some picturs in no particular order.
While the street dancing was announced for 7:00 am, the Freedom Park in Guihulngan was rather empty at that time. The first contingent arrived past that hour and it took another few hours until the street parade of the Guihulugan Festival 2015 finally started.
It makes somehow sense. Why should they actually perform when it is not that hot, when they are still fresh, when they are still in a great mood… Nah, no need – better wait a few hours until the sun burns down…
The show-down of the Guihulugan Festival 2015 started in a packed covered court some when around 2:00 pm. Most of the five contingents had some additional dancers as support and of course more props. The judges had a tough job to decide who will be the winner of the grand prize. For the DC-Team it was very clear: All were winners!!
