Nice vedio Lucy

[@ritchelperez]

Mind blowing right?😂 😊on my younger days, i really like to watch dinagyang from the tV, they have aerial view , every tribe use to have different formations look really cool

[@broken037]

The difference between sinulog and dinagyang is the competition. Sinulog is just like performing street dancing while in dinagyang they're performing while telling a story. Btw nice videos looking forward to the next one

[@mattimori3361]

Sinulog is known for the step forward and step backward dance while dinagyang is known for putting mud in the skin to represent the ati tribe.

[@FinnSnowVlogs]

How insane were those performances!?!?!

[@A_prentiss]

Fiiiiiiiiiiiiiiin! haha

[@FrancisAlbert1990]

go to Iloilo Finn. Or they can go to you. You can show them Negros Island.

[@lyricg.4865]

Pin pin 😍😍😍

[@arthurtan2938]

Steve was correct in his observation, Dinagyang is more centered on tribal performance whilst Sinulog is centered on the dancing queen. This is actually a historical symbolism. As you may know, Magellan came to Cebu converted the locals to Chirstianity & offered the image of the Sto. Nino to Rajah Humabon & his wife, who was later rechristened as Queen Juana. She was so taken with the image of the Sto. Nino that she danced with the image with so much passion, hence the reason why Sinulog performances as you saw almost always has a dancing queen holding the image of Sto. Nino. On a similar note, Magellan came to Cebu in 1521, so that means in 2 years time, 2021 will be the 500th anniversary since the arrival of Sto. Nino. Needless to say, it will be really special.

Very inspiring of your copy paste

I'm from Manila, but I'm so sooo impressed with the Dinagyang Festival !! Gotta watch this in person later on !!

[@jeankristine8121]

I love u all.. looking forward colab videos with finn again.

[@eugenevillagracia8869]

Indeed you definitely must!

I was in cebu when i've first seen dinagyang. Now I'm in davao and really amazed with it.

[@natalietai1150]

Philippines is a great country ! Very talented dancers . Lovely people !

[@244hayrick]

Oh wow, I'm so impressed right now of Dinagyang. Definitely in my bucket list now.

[@FilipinaPaige]

I don't know why i just cried...i've probably miss --the city of love- ILOILO. People from this place is known to be the most soft-spoken and sweetest in the country. BTW, your vids are always SICK...incredibly awesome and lit. keep it up...

[@hanitoy5793]

Im from Cebu and its unbelievable how different it is from Sinulog. Theyre equally great but this one just made me want to visit and see it for myself. Thanks for showing this!

[@maayongaga729]

I'm surprised my friend from Cebu said they have not seen any of our Aeta/Ate/Ita brothers in your Island? They're still around in Panay. Many were placed in a community run by Missionaries.

[@evangelinesmith3153]

Amazing performances! Colorful costumes, thanks for sharing.

[@dennispena5419]

My first Dinagyang was more than a decade ago. My first sinulog was 20 years ago. Although both the Sinulog and Dinagyang celebrate the Sto. Nino (Infant Jesus), each has its own unique vibe that is difficult to explain - and yes, both festival are mind blowing. Glad that you four enjoyed both festivals.

[@JuanDelaCruz-il9wy]

Lots of those performances are better than American Got Talent performances !! forreal !!

[@jorenzlorenz]

Sinulog is more of honoring the Christianity brought upon the island, where as Dinagyang depicts the story of tribal groups being converted into Christians. Also people are more touchy in Sinulog 🤗, Dinagyang is a showcase of ASSets 😱 and as much as I hate comparing them I’ve always enjoyed Dinagyang more just because I grew up watching it and seen how the dances evolved to what they have became now. Kudos to the indigenous tribe of Miro!

[@eugenevillagracia8869]

Djorz definitely agree to that not to compare but in deed dinagyang of iloilo is much more on OVERALL PERFORMANCE AND FESTIVITY.like u said cebu is a bit touchy but speaking to all that more are much of enjoyed festivity is dinagyang and ati atihan in kalibo they both are the most fun performance and enjoyable feastivity in the philippines

[@rulfxd4211]

sinulog to ulo mo daw sinunog

[@macfundale6426]

Guys dinagyang is not only one day celebration and competition, it's a 3 days tribes competition, Friday tambor trumpa Saturday kasadyahan festival a regional competition it showcase festivals in other cities and places in the region then Sunday dinagyang festival tribe contest,and majority of us ilonggo don't watch it live during the dinagyang tribes competition, it's hard to watch it in 5 judging areas police officers sometimes are strict and limitted area ,except if we buy tickets , it's more comfortable if we watch it on TV , then in the afternoon upto midnight we go to the streets and make sadsad or merrymaking some are dancing especially where the sound system is..many are enjoying eating inasal at food festivals, dringking liquor etc.its between 2pm upto 12 midnight...last year base on crowd estimates by oder govt agencies,media etc people making sadsad or merrymaking 3 days Friday Saturday and Sunday afternoon 2pm-12 midnight it's more than 2 million people sorry for my English haha

[@leyesyws]

Hi guys,FYI. The bola bola tribe (which Lucy mentioned as an 8 time champion)...They were champion for 8 years, the years they championed and the costume they wore were on that "blocking board" (if i may call it that way). They hold the most championship in Dinagyang history. These were students before,now they are working professionals and businessmens. They're not there to compete but to take part on this year's dinagyang. Glad you enjoyed your dinagyang experience. 👍

If you were completely amazed by the Dinagyang Festival, you should have seen the Ati-Atihan Festival of Kalibo Aklan where it was originated....

[@ralfmanajero9120]

Both Dinagyang and Ati Atihan is in one island where Aetas or Ati Originated. No wonder it's the same.. But Dinagyang has it's own uniqueness,.

[@CAA1550]

All I can say is Wow! their performances are very entertaining. There is so muc passion in their dancing. And their costumes are so colorful and beautiful. Thank you George and Lucy for sharing this to us. Although they were just portions of the performances, I was entertained. Enjoy the rest of your adventures with Mike and Nelly.

[@evangelinebaluyut240]

I JUST LOVE WATCHING YOU GUYS. FILIPINOS TRULY LOVE YOU ALL. THANK YOU FOR YOUR ENJOYMENT AND LOVING THE CULTURES THAT ILOILO PEOPLE HAVE BEEN PROUD OF.

Their facial expressions and sounds of the drums made me goosebumps. 😮

19:40 Lucy: "..watching the performance, i got tears in my eyes, not like from sadness.." George: "from the smoke, from the barbecues.." haha : D it made my day!!!

[@bsidesrandomthoughtsbyricc7881]

Thanks George and Lucy for showing us Dinagyang. Honestly I didn’t pay much attention to Dinagyang before because I felt it’s just like Sinulog! Now i appreciate it and amazed how how totally different it is and I hope to witness it personally in the future. And it’s good that they stage it a week after Sinulog, unlike the Ati-Atihan in Aklan which is the same schedule with Sinulog!

[@michaeljohncatubuan9290]

In dinagyang we spend months practicing our dances for 8 min performance..and there is a 5 judging area that we need to perform.. consider the heat of the sun..it's really tiring but satisfying at the same time..thanks for vlogging Iloilo city. Hope to see you again here

[@li-nettev.6703]

Wow i miss home. thanks for the vlog. Dinagyang Festivals always win as the best festival in the Philippines. You already witnessed the enrgy and performances. The schools prepared the students since June for this festival. They practiced until midnight. Thanks for loving Iloilo and Dinagyang. More power! ☺

[@vf1rj371]

I'm impressed. The costumes were so ornate and colorful. The choreography, incredible. Mind blown. I gotta see it for myself one day.

Im crying watching your vlog... Dinagyang always do this to me... Im sooo proud of dinagyang. Its the spirit of dinagyang that makes you cry. You can feel the pride, passion and spirit of every dinagyang warrior...

[@TheJopong]

Thanks for visiting our City.. IL❤IL❤ what makes dinagyang different is in the choreography and unique beats of the drums.

[@RoniePadao]

I usually skipped during b-rolls, but this one... EVERY SECOND COUNTS! Like I should really go to Dinagyang next year. I'm an introvert person so I'm not into festivals but for the sake of art, this one shouldn't miss. You guys did a great job covering this event. Kudos to the organizers who let you document the festival for a different outlet. Cheers!

[@theamazingnoypi6664]

Wow! You guys are really enjoying Filipino festivities...Sinulog and now Dinagyang...i hope you can join Ati-atihan, Maskara and Penagbenga Festival too...Filipinos are really into fiestas as inherited during the Spanish era in the 1500s...Enjoy more and always be safe...

[@lowenzybermejo3627]

This was great guys. Awesome festival! Cool performances. Such pride and energy they had. Filipinos are proud people about their cultures. Thank you for sharing.

[@maayongaga729]

Omg I'm teary eyed. I Am So Glad they Feature these Original Aeta Tribes from Nagpana, Barotac Viejo. The Festival is for them...they were the True Black Ancestors that Originally owned that Island. The rest of those participants are merely fake painted. Please don't forget to visit their tribe in Nagpana and some other areas, missionaries put them in one town and took care of them. Some live and beg in the streets. They own that Island but they're the most unheared people of the Philippines.

[@vplane]

"The current Ati population of Iloilo is not involved with any of the tribes nor are they involved in the festival in any other way although recently the original Atis from the hinterlands of Panay specifically from the mountains of Barotac Nuevo and Anilao came to participate non-competitively for recognition and giving them importance as being the characters symbolically portrayed in the festival."

[@YYC403NOYP]

I really would like them to participate every year as a reminder to the new generation of their existence.

[@aileena.41]

NCIP is actually the govt agency that takes care of the aetas..they educate them and give them jobs..used to work below them in one building...their challenge i think is becoz of their nomadic nature, they tend to leave the program..only a few was succesful and able to make it...

[@esperanzacorazon9686]

@@YYC403NOYP i really hope gov would give them so much more, respect, finances, acknowledgment, and all

[@johnco25]

Cool but I don't think that is the way how to describe the rest as "fake" painted when it's naturally obvious. The festival is in fact to look back at the past and in honoring our ancestors and them the atis thus explains the black painted bodies. 😉

[@mochamarco3657]

I've been watching your vlogs since the day you arrive in the Philippines. I've lived my whole life in the Philippines- now living in the US and never been to any festival outside Manila. I was literally crying watching this vlog cause of the tribal dances- so incredible! Thanks for making this video!

[@Mykitchenaddiction45]

So proud to be ilonggo from Iloilo 😁😁😁..anyways FYI, every dance tells a story,....a history of iloilo before the Spaniards came to conquer and civilized the people of Iloilo....the original race of Filipino looks exactly like that, they were called aetas,....but as time progresses the civilization changed, education and religion was introduced,and people as well changed, due to interracial marriages

[@kenw.5166]

? this festival originated in the 70's and was derived from the the Ati-Atihan festival where the aetas were starving and came out of their mountain village to ask the malays for help. In thanks they danced. Filipinos today especially visayans from Panay island were originally refugees from a city state called Panai in Malaysia and were part of the Srivijayan kingdom, much of filipino culture originated from them. They were driven out by the Chola empire from Southern India (which is why we call indians bhumbay). Honestly I think the malay filipinos didn't just "buy" the island from the aetas we displaced and fucked them up through war. It's kinda hypocritical IloIlo celebrates them ... but whatever it attracts tourists.

[@vincelements]

The Taliano treasure proves that Philipines civilization was ahead than western civilization.

[@minim6981]

@@trentdiaz8197 you need to relearn Philippine history. That theory has been debunked. The first group were the Aetas, then the Austronesians came. They mixed, but obviously there were a lot more Austronesians, so most Filipinos look more Austronesian. But we still have Aeta blood, this has been proven by DNA

[@Gilvids]

@@trentdiaz8197 this is it. aetas are aborigines, filipinos came from malays. some filipinos intermarriage with aetas

@komentarista cite your resources. you cant debunk facts. go listen to indonesian or malayasian language. you will realized the languages sound the same and have many words that are similar in meaning more so than spanish

[@omardepalubos5682]

Your presentation is simply awesome. The way you capture those moments in the performances gives me a new and different perspective of Dinagyang. I don’t know but from your lens, it’s way different. I can feel the energy- in fact, i got emotional. I can now appreciate more of my culture, our traditions and heritage. I’m wondering how many festivals around the world have you witnessed so far, and how is Dinagyang compared to those festivals?

[@angeltupas7896]

Sinulog is actually more on the religious aspect because it is in honor of Snr. Sto Nino or the Child Jesus and the first arrival of Christianity here in the Philippines and how the natives embraced it. Whilst, Dinagyang Festival, although it also celebrates Snr. Sto Nino, it is more on the tribal side, to celebrate the arrival of Malay settlers(one of our ancestors) in Panay, Ilo-ilo and the subsequent selling of the island to them by the Aboriginal people (Aeta's).

[@piersonquerubin720]

Hope you experience Ati-atihan in Kalibo Aklan the next time. Aside from it's the Mother of all festivals, it's the most interactive compared to Sinulog and Dinagyang. All you have to do there is dance in the street in the beat of the drums and lyres, you can also have beer while dancing! I've experienced Sinulog and Dinagyang as well and compared to them, I am sure you'll have more fun in Ati-atihan!

[@kentgarcia903]

The difference between Sinulog, Dinagyang and Ati-atihan: Sinulog is more on trumpet, more focused on modern (16th. century) yet grandiose vests, using canvass usually florals to have good visual effects; Dinagyang is more on drums, high energy performance and choreography, ethic costumes and music; Ati-atihan is more on lyre, street dancing called sadsad, ingenuity of materials and you can join them in dancing.. All unique in its own way in honor to Sto. Niño.

[@pamd.5377]

Very well said. No point to argue over who's the best. 🤣

[@kynsuoh5844]

True! Every festival may iba ibang mechanics.

[@seannepatrick7860]

[@femoreo4233]

The difference from Sinulog is that Sinulog seems more wild. This is more choreographed more organized. There is a presentation of the different tribes and what they do in dances that did not have in Sinulog.

Both festivals are great on its own. I loved the experience I had with Sinulog coz it was extremely fun and felt like I'm taking part in the festivities. With Dinagyang, I felt like I was just an audience and just watched parts of the performance in TV but I haven't really watched Dinagyang proper. I only loved it coz of the vibe it gives to the whole city, the merry making, fireworks displays, beats of drums and music everywhere, and meeting up with friends but I haven't seen live performances. Until this. WOW! I'm in awe! The music, colors, choreography, and energy. Made me feel like I was there in the front seat watching too. I felt goosebumps. I still feel like a spectator but of something sooo spectacular. I love Dinagyang, but I love it more after watching your vlog. Thank you!!!😍 I'm glad you enjoyed! 💕

[@feelingrandom3300]

Did you know that every place has their local twist and cultural show just like Dinagyang in iloilo city. For example: DINAGYANG, ILOILO. DINAGYANG FESTIVAL. ... SINULOG FESTIVAL, CEBU. SINULOG FESTIVAL. ... ATI-ATIHAN FESTIVAL, KALIBO, AKLAN. ATI-ATIHAN FESTIVAL. ... PAHIYAS FESTIVAL, LUCBAN, QUEZON. ... CUTUD CRUXIFICIONS, SAN FERNANDO, PAMPANGA. ... MASSKARA FESTIVAL, BACOLOD. ... PANAGBENGA FESTIVAL, BAGUIO. ... KADAYAWAN FESTIVAL - DAVAO HOT-AIR BALLOON FESTIVAL, CLARK, PAMPANGA. and a whole lot more guys.

Nice you've enjoyed Dinagyang. Both Sinulog and Dinagyang are Celebrating the Arrival of Sto. Niño. But in Dinagyang more on presentation of how Ati(Indigenous) people adopted Sto. Niño in their lives. The Beats and the feels are different and both are unique in their own way. Have a nice stay in ILOILO.

Cebu's Sinulog is different from iloilo's Dinagyan because in Cebu, the locals speaks Cebuano, while, in Iloilo the locals speaks Ilonggo. These religious festivals are celebrated in honor of the holy child Jesus. These religious festivities were highlighted long ago by the local media. Thus, Sinulog and Dinagyan became major events. The Filipinos thrives in diversity. We are a nation of many positive vibes and cultures. These are the characteristics of the natives of South East Asians.

In iloilo, We are called Ilonggos and we speak Hiligaynon. 😊 The misconception of people to our language. Just sharing. No hate pls

Shairra, I stand corrected.

Bola Bola tribe is a non-competing tribe. They were the ones who introduced Dinagyang to the world through their innovations in their choreography and they were also champions during their time... so the ones who performed are their alumni😊👍🏼
