The festival’s name means “to be like the Ati’s” (also called Aetas) and today, two varying
tales of the Ati-Atihan’s roots are known.
Hailed as the “Mother of Philippine Festivals” by the National Commission for Culture and
the Arts (NCCA), the Ati-atihan Festival of Kalibo, Aklan started during the 16th century.
Believed to be around 800 years old, it was celebrated by the Aetas of Panay and the newly
settled Malays from Borneo, long before there was an archipelagic Philippines to speak of.
Today it is recognized as the “Mother of all Philippine festivals”
Marvel at the vibrant energy, rhythmic drumbeats, and the spirited dances that flood the
streets of Kalibo, Aklan each January. This isn’t just any festival; it’s the Ati-Atihan, often
dubbed as the Philippines’ wildest and most jubilant fiesta.
The Ati-Atihan is ultimately a grand spectacle of dance, music, and devotion. Participants,
wearing indigenous-inspired costumes, indulge in rhythmic dance moves that mimic the
warriors of old.
The Ati-Atihan Festival stands as a proud, colorful testament to Filipino heritage, a
confluence of history, culture, and spirituality. Celebrated annually in January in Kalibo,
Aklan, Philippines. Ati-Atihan festival costumes are more than mere adornments; they are
symbolic armor that pay homage to indigenous Ati tribes.
Central to the festival are the Ati-Atihan dance rituals and parade routines, which are
exuberant displays of joy and piety. Groups of dancers and musicians march through the
streets, their steps a complex choreography that tells stories of the island’s history and
culture.

Ati-Atihan plays a crucial role in strengthening the community’s bond and reaffirming their
shared identity. The festival is a melting pot of both indigenous and modern traditions that
reinforces a sense of belonging.
Long time ago, ethnic tribes of Davao would gather every after a bountiful harvest to give
thanks to their divine protectors particularly their supreme being called “Manama”. They do
this in a form of a ritual called “pahinungod” where singing, dancing, and offering is a must.
Various harvest such as fruits, vegetables, flowers, rice and corn grains are also displayed on
mats as part of the annual pahinungod.
In 1970, this annual event of thanksgiving was formally institutionalized by Mayor Elias B.
Lopez, a Bagobo. This event features Lumads (natives) and Muslim tribes with their own
dances and thanksgiving rituals.
After the People Power Revolution in 1986, “Unlad Proyekto Sa Dabaw” was launched by
the government to unite the people of Davao after the turmoils of Martial Law.
Part of the said program was their annual thanksgiving festival dubbed as “Apo DuWaling”
which came from the famous icons of Davao: Mt. Apo which is the country’s tallest
mountain, the king of fruit which is the Durian, and the Walingwaling, the famous queen of
orchids. Apo DuWaling’s main purpose is to promote Davao as a safe, beautiful, and
profitable place after the EDSA Revolution.
In 1988, the then Mayor and now President Rodrigo Duterte renamed the festival
Kadayawan sa Davao. The term Kadayawan is from a Mandaya word madayaw, the locals’
term equivalent to treasured or valuable. They use this term to express deep gratitude for
all the blessing they received during the year and to showcase the city’s rich culture.
The highlight of this joyful celebration is the street dance competition called Indak-indak sa
Kadalanan. Here, participants represent a tribe with their unique story of thanksgiving.
Gongs and kulintangs are such important members of the music group because these
instruments, aside from their loud ringing sound, represent the Mindanao region. What
makes this festival unique is the addition of live vocal music such as chants to enhance the
musicality of the piece.
Usually, this festival is held every 3rd week of August. In 2019, this week-long celebration
was held during the whole month of August, continuously bringing smiles to everyone who
has experienced this wonderful event
