The Aliwan Fiesta 2012

The festival of all festivals has just been concluded, and with 21 contingents from all over the country competed on this year's Aliwan Fiesta, only one emerged as the grand champion. But before we go into those details, let me share to you first the other stunning and world-class performances that the other participants showcased today.

From Luzon, to Visayas, and down to Mindanao, Aliwan Fiesta 2012 gathered all the best festivals in our country to show to the whole of the Metropolitan Manila, and also to the whole country via the generous coverage of TV5, how our nation is filled with colors, creativity and rich culture.

This is my nth time to see this fiesta, and for the nth time, it never failed to wow me and literally take my breath away with the every amazing contingent that they have here performed. 

On its 10th year anniversary, Aliwan Fiesta just keeps the color flowing and the music getting louder. No wonder, local and international tourists really spend time catching this festivity.

And so, without further here's a glimpse of what happened earlier.

Aliwan Fiesta 2011

The most coveted festival exhibition is here again! And as the summer's heat burns the busy streets of the metropolis, 18 contingents from different provinces and cities in the Philippines once again exemplified an astonishing, colorful exhibition of talents and grace for the Aliwan Fiesta 2011.

I got a chance to witness its last day, and despite of the burning summer heat, I, together with thousand of excited spectators, waited at the Cultural Center of the Philippines area, in front of Aliwan Theater to witness and to dance along the drumbeats of these 18 groups who were vying for the title of Aliwan Fiesta 2011 Champions.
