 It’s all systems go for the Opening Salvo of Iloilo Dinagyang 2020 on January 10, Friday, starting at 3 PM at the Iloilo Freedom Grandstand.



Must watch are the 3-5 minute “teaser” performances of the eight Dinagyang 360° competing tribes, which are vying for the championship with a total prize of 5 million pesos in cash and projects.

As a dry-run for the main competition, all eight tribes – Baybayanon, Baryohanon, Dagatnon, Hugponganon, Ilonganon, Paghidaet, Panayanon, and Salognon, will perform at the three other designated judging areas: Solis-Iznart, Valeria- Ledesma, and Central Market.




Also adding more color and fun are six of the barangay tribes who are making a comeback during the Dagyang sa Calle Real on January 25 namely: Tribu Angola, Aninipay, Molave, Sagasa, Sagrada, and Parianon.


The event is made more beautiful with the first public appearance of the 11 stunning contestants of Miss Iloilo 2020.

Capping the Opening Salvo will be the spectacular fireworks display.

Hala bira, Iloilo! Viva, Sr. Sto. Nino!
