Kannawidan Festival: A Celebration of Culture, History, and Unity in Ilocos Sur


The Kannawidan Festival is an annual celebration in Ilocos Sur that showcases the rich culture, tradition, and history of the province. It is celebrated every last week of January to the first week of February in commemoration of the establishment of Ilocos Sur as a separate province in 1818. Through this festival, the ancient customs and arts of the Ilocano people can be displayed and passed on to the next generation. 


The Kannawidan Festival plays a significant role in boosting tourism and the economy of Ilocos Sur. One of its features is the One Town, One Product (OTOP) Trade Fair, where each town proudly displays its main product, such as cauliflower from Sta. Catherine. In addition, there are various activities such as street dancing, cultural performances, and cooking competitions that showcase the skills and talents of the Ilocano people. Such activities not only make residents happy but also provide opportunities for entrepreneurs and local products to be better known throughout the country.


 More than fun, the Kannawidan Festival is a tribute to the history and identity of Ilocos Sur. This shows the unity of the Ilocano people in maintaining their culture and valuing the past generations. Through this celebration, pride and love for the homeland can be felt, while continuing to promote the development of the province through culture, art, and tourism.
