From Jan. 20-24, 10 am to 9 pm, browse from items locally weaved, crafted and made by Ilonggo micro, small and medium enterprises. 




Adding color to the celebration, a majestic parade of Dinagyang Warrior Costumes on the runway is also set to showcase the creativity and festive way of merrymaking by the Ilonggo community. The Dinagyang Warriors Fashion Show will be held on Jan. 23, 5 pm at the Megaworld Boulevard, Iloilo Business Park.


No celebration will be complete without a feast of Ilonggo flavors. Indulge in the delectable cuisine from different local restaurants at the Dinagyang Food Walk from Jan 21-24, 10 am-10 pm at the Festive Walk Parade. 

“The Dinagyang 2021 celebration at Iloilo Business Park aims to inspire Ilonggos to look forward to brighter beginnings,” Karmela Alexandra Jesena, marketing manager of Festive Walk Iloilo said. “More than just the usual merrymaking, it is a homage to the strength and hard work of every Ilonggo, especially our frontliners, who sparked a ray of hope for the city amid the pandemic.”



With Ilonggos’ health and safety as the top priority and in partnership with the Iloilo City government, Iloilo Business Park will implement government-mandated health and safety protocols such as mandatory temperature checks, footwear and hand sanitation, wearing of face masks and face shields and strict observance of social distancing.
