The Sinulog Festival at Market! Market!

The Sinulog is a festival held every 3rd Sunday of January to commemorate the Cebuano’s acceptance of Roman Catholicism. It’s a very popular festival in the Philippines and is also commemorated in other cities.

I was surprised yesterday that there is a Sinulog Festival event at Market! Market!, Bonifacio Global City, Taguig. They have a huge image of the Santo Niño (the child Jesus), a photo-exhibit, Ati-Atihan dance, and food and souvenir bazaar. It’s good to know that even though I’m very far from Cebu City (the heart of the celebration), I could still participate in the festivities.
