Festivals and Theatrical Forms I
Festivals of Aklan, Cebu, Batangas,
Marinduque, Davao, and Bicol
The Ati-atihan Festival is known as the wildest
of the Philippine festivals which means “make-
believe Atis” wherein participants portray the
natives of Kalibo, Aklan called, “Ati or Aetas”. It
is a week-long festival held annually every third
week of January that consists of a tribal dance
parade with drum music, costumes and
indigenous accessories to honor the Santo
Nino or the Holy Christ Jesus. People cheer
and shout “Hala Bira!” and “Viva Santo Nino!” to
encourage enthusiasm and continuous dancing
for the duration of the festival.
The Sinulog Festival is an annual cultural and

religious festival held on the third Sunday of
January in the city of Cebu to honor the Santo
Nino, commemorate the Filipino rejection of
their former religious views, and acceptance of
Christianity. This festival is famous among local
and international tourists for its grand street
parade which imitates the type of dancing done
by the natives of Cebu before they were
baptized as Christians.The petitioners often yell
out ‘Pit Senior”. They flock to the festival for
prayer requests and thanksgiving while dancing,
believing that Santo Nino will hear them.
Different groups of dancers dressed in colorful
attire are accompanied by rhythmic music of the
drums, trumpets, and native gongs.
The Sublian Festival is an annual celebration on the
twenty third day of July reflecting the Batanguenos’
commitment and great love to their town’s patrons, the
holy Cross of Bauan and Agoncillo, and the Santo Nino
of Batangas City. It was originally a religious ceremony
that involves prayer, eating, dancing the “Subli”, and
singing verses with strict skeletal melody.
Moriones Festival is a colorful folk-religious festival

during holy week in the island known as the “heart of
the Philippines,” the island of Marinduque. The festival
is a reenactment of the story of Saint Longinus. He was
the centurion who pierced the side of Jesus Christ and
regain his vision after drops of blood and water hit his
eyes. He proclaims the miracle and because of this he
was punished to great pain and was beheaded under
Pontius Pilate’s order. Participants played the rule of
Roman soldiers and wear the Morion’s costume so that
no one can identify them.
Kadayawan Festival is held in Davao every third

week of August in celebration of thanksgiving for
good harvest with parade floats of fresh fruits and
flowers, and street dancing with colorful tribal
