Voltes V: Legacy stars to brighten Dinagyang Festival

The stars of the highly-anticipated live-action adaptation of “Voltes V: Legacy” are set to ‘volt-in’ and amp up the return of in-person celebrations of the Dinagyang Festival this weekend.


 


Iloilo’s annual festival is definitely back and GMA Network’s regional arm, GMA Regional TV, is treating Kapusong Ilonggos to a special Saturdate on January 21 with “Voltes V: Legacy” cast Miguel Tanfelix, Ysabel Ortega, Radson Flores, Matt Lozano, and Raphael Landicho. Catch Steve, Jamie, Mark, Big Bert, and Little Jon at Robinsons Iloilo for a Kapuso Mall Show at 4 PM.


 

Last week, the Voltes V: Legacy cast celebrated with Kapusong Cebuano during the return of the Sinulog Festival. Miguel, Ysabel, Radson, Matt, and Raphael bannered the back-to-back Kapuso Mall Shows last January 14 and further brightened the Sinulog Grand Parade as they boarded the Kapuso Float the following day.


 

“For the past two years, GMA Regional TV celebrated Dinagyang Festival by airing the ‘Dinagyang Digital’ in partnership with the Iloilo Festivals Foundation, Inc. (IFFI) and the Iloilo City Government. This year, we are very excited to have the in-person celebrations back, and what better way to make this return special than by bringing the stars of the highly-anticipated live-action adaptation of  “Voltes V: Legacy” led by our Sparkle GMA artists. As our Kapusong Ilonggos remain steadfast in their faith and devotion to Señor Santo Niño, we at GMA Network are one with each and every Kapuso in celebrating this very special event,” said First Vice President and Head of GMA Regional TV and Synergy, and Acting Head of GMA Integrated News Oliver Victor B. Amoroso.



 

GMA Regional TV brings the Dinagyang Festival closer to Kapuso viewers via “Hala Bira! The GMA Regional TV Special Coverage” airing this Sunday (January 22) on GMA Regional TV’s Iloilo channels from 10 AM to 12 NN.  Netizens can likewise watch the livestream from 8 AM onwards via GMA Regional TV's Facebook page and Twitter account (@GMARegionalTV) as well as its official website www.gmaregionaltv.com.

Connie Carillo Diversified Farm in Bingawan: Helping Sustaining a Healthy Community Through Farm Schools

The area around the town of Bingawan, the edge of the central portion of the province is where it ends and the town of Tapaz, Capiz province begins and is very much another unsung corner of Iloilo with warm, friendly, welcoming people. Bingawan has some rich farming land and farming is at the heart of its village life. The landscapes are gorgeous here; with gentle pastures, to the high mountains. The area offers some beautiful hikes and bike trails across its lovely rolling meadows, woodland and a few working farms. The town would be less touristic than its neighboring towns but is well worth exploring.

With the governments’ efforts to improve the knowledge and technical skills of the farmers, the Connie Carillo Diversified Fa...

St. Joseph Chapel at Festive Walk Iloilo's The Deck

While most malls around the country host Sunday masses in some obscure hallway filled with plastic chairs with a makeshift altar, some malls have built niches or transformed unused spaces into places of worship. And Ilonggos should be proud that one of the newest malls in Iloilo City has actually a chapel located in a prime spot and one that boasts both beauty and serenity.  The St. Joseph Chapel at Festive Walk Iloilo is located in one of its al fresco areas known as The Deck located  at the 3rd level. While this open air area also has a mini plaza and dog park (and soon - cafes and restaurants) it is the chapel that highlights this al fresco part of the mall. Eucharistic mass services are held every Sunday at 11am while first Friday masses at 5pm.  It is open to the public everyday for personal moments of silence and solitude. The Deck and everything in it is open from 10am to 10pm with the entrance located betwee...
