Let’s face it; the highlight of the Sinulog Festival is not getting drunk on the streets and forgetting your name but the root of it Remember that Sinulog was a holy celebration so let’s pay attention to the meaning of its celebration.

The Grand Parade never failed to attract tourists and people from all over the Philippines! It also makes everyone happy that people outside of Cebu participated in the Festival! You see tourists everywhere. Most of them are culture-shocked in a nice way and many non-Cebuano shared that they felt they were already one of the people- Thanks to the hospitality and bursts of energy the Cebuano people gave away as they screamed “Pit Senyor!” while smiling to strangers and painting their faces. No one felt like a stranger that day indeed.

Again, Sinulog isn’t Sinulog without a prayer so some people preferred to celebrate the festival in their churches. Some also chose to celebrate both ways by going to church and then partying later. As expected, people were on the streets and it would be difficult to go from one place to another and this year, there were even more people! You can barely walk already.

The floats, “Higantes”, street dancing and others did not waste their time and effort since the most deserving ones were awarded. To the rest who were not, it still counts as experience and for sure they are more than happy to participate in the festival.
