We went to Kalibo Ati-Atihan Festival yesterday and wow! We have no actual number but up to 100k or more people there. And from what we saw were were the only foreigners? Tourists need to see this!!
I thought Kalibo is near Boracay. Are the tourists in Boracay not aware of what is happening in Kalibo? Maybe the local government of Kalibo needs to advertise their festival. It seems that only the locals know that there is going to be a festival.
I have attended ati-atihan festival a couple of times amazed by the locals stamina for partying they keep going for a week . My wife comes from Camanci norte not far from kalibo always nice to be there
Thank you for coming here in Kalibo, Aklan ( Opening Salvo Ati-atihan festival 2023. See you around on the 3rd week of January 2023. It's a whole week massive festival, the Mother of all Philippine festival Ati-atihan festival 2023🙂
Just the Opening Salvo, it means starting that day Street dancing, food festival, expo, fun, etc, just begun, The Ati-atihan Festival highlights in on the 3rd week of January . 3 months of fun and partying. So make sure you come back on that date to Kalibo.
I love Ati-atihan, they're the original and Mother of all Philippines Festivals.. but for Mardi-grass Vibe I prefer Sinulog of Cebu while Tribal vibe for Dinagyang of Iloilo. Those two Festivals are I'm dying to attend. Sinulog is so much Fun, vibrancy and Festivities, while Dinagyang is Tribal vibe, cultural and well presented. We also have Festivals here in Vigan in May guys but not as big as in Visayas but it's enjoyable too.
I think the Mardi Gras of Asia is the Sinulog Festival of Cebu City (every January). Be there during the grand parade and group presentation. Flower Festival called Panagbenga in Baguio City in February. Re-enactment of Passion and Crucifixion of Christ on Good Friday in Pampanga. Higantes. Festival in Angono, Rizal in November
I miss those fiestas, we have Masskara in Bacolod and I miss burning calories just walking around and enjoying the festivities. Don't worry bout some of the audience covering their faces when in focus, they are friendly but some may have ditch an appointment or classes lol, and they just don't want to be seen or they get in trouble when they get home lol. Enjoy! How fun!
That's only the opening salvo, the proper celebration is on third week of January 2023. Thank you for featuring our Ati - Atihan Festival and our very own Boracay Island in your TH-cam channel.
Hello Bianca and Mike, nice you visited Aklan but the real Ati-atihan celebration is next year on the Feast of Sto. Ninõ on January. It is just a prelude of the real celebrations but during day of the event, all blackened competitors are all dressed up in their unique home town costumes with different drum sound beats and dance. Anyway great to see it ahead of time to experience the fun! And just for info .... my family is from MAKATO AKLAN!
Well done, salamat! You captured the energy. Drum lines! Luv ‘em. Thnks 4 staying with many for a while. Really enjoyed the museum costumes & guide’s knowledge.
Look at that! The locals are waving their hands! Everybody is awesome! I enjoyed this vlog! Thanks for touring us around the place! I also love attending festivals like Sinulog! 😘
The Main Highlights of the Festival Mr. Bob is on January 14-15, 2023. I hope you'll get there and experience the Colorful and Vibrant Festival. More Tribal Groups will appear on that said Date. Keepsafe Mr. Bob. See you.
3rd week of January is the festival here in kalibo. A long week of celebration which each day is different and the best thing on that is you can dance before or after the bands.
Wait until you see the Iloilo;s Ati-Atihan/Dinagyang festival in January. There are different competing tribes. Each make their own costumes and they choreograph their own dance moves and drum beats! It also usually tells a story as to the origin of the festival and as to its adoration of the blessed baby Jesus( Sto. Nino). Try to get a seat at the main grand stand where you can see the different tribes compete in front of judges. Try to get there early in the morning though before the festival starts. You will not be disappointed!
This is not yet the festival proper, it is only an opening event to let the public know about the upcoming festival which will be held on every 3rd week of january. The festival would last for about a week where you can see people dancing on streets from morning til evening. Hope you'll able to come back by that time and i assure you it would be more festive and fun
You'll surely enjoy the festival proper! january is the month of festivals Sinulog in Cebu on the 2nd week Ati-Atihan in Kalibo Aklan on the 3rd week Dinagyang Festival In Iloilo City on the 4th week! Prepare to be blown away!
I am happy seeing people happy. It's been a while since I saw people being able to celebrate together with their friends like this. I wish everyone a good life now that we are approaching the endemic. Inflation rate is too high atm. 🥺
Don't forget to go to Sinulog Festival in Cebu City on January! 2 to 3 millions people partying like there is not tomorrow! I will be there on January!
We are going to try to attend the festival, won't be able to make it this month we have guests flying into Boracay to stay with us. But aiming for January as long as it doesn't interfere with the Iloilo one
This is just an Opening salvo of the festival proper which will be held in January. Opening salvo marks the beginning of the festivities. and gives you a small glimps of what is about to come. The climax will be in January. Be sure to return and enjoy! :Hala bira! Viva Sto Nino!
We are back on Boracay right now until December so it's a bit far now for us to go there. Next year we will be already living in Iloilo and we could attend in October
It's about a celebration made by our Datus, which is our ancestors who escaped from Borneo who came to the island of Panay, to the Aetas tribe (small, curly and dark skin tribes) who already inhabited the island. To pay tribute to the friendliness of Aetas to them and provided the island to them. They created a feast and celebration through a dance which imitating them. Ati atihan means acting like Aetas.
That's my home town, I'm one of your subscribers. I am not there right now coz I'm still on board working in cruise ship. I will be home in January for the Ati - Atihan. Hope to meet you there guys.
I can't wait for you guys to experience the Dinagyang Ati-atihan in Iloilo City. I used to do it years ago. But from what I know it's gotten so intense and competitive - it's ati atihan on steroids!
Sir maam Please Visit Batan Aklan too this coming 3rd weak of January to have fun with us with our environmental or called malacara or the atiatihan festival too in batan with unique culture and traditions also costume in Batan Celebrates the atiatihan
oh. atiatihan is in january isnt now? ive been to that festival five years in a row and what an experience those were! the beat was faster abd more intense that what i saw and heard in this video with shouts of "hala bira" and "viva senor sto nino" and " pit senor" echoing. this made me feel nostalgic
Check out our famous Biniray and Ati Atihan Festival in Romblon, Romblon in January. It’s like a month long celebration but the Ati Ati is around Jan 13,14 and 15.. You will love it!!!
Atiatihan isn't really advertised because it's not meant to boost tourism. Just like Boracay, it was promoted by foreign tourists and not LGU's. The festival is originally a Pagan Thanksgiving Festival between the indigenous Ati People and the Malay Aklanons. As you can see, the spirit of this Festival is totally different to other Visayan Commercial Fetivals. Almost every town in Aklan has its own interpretation of Atiatihan Festival. It is really in the spirit of Aklanons and not a choreographed Festival to please tourists like those of Highly Urbanized Cities of Bacolod, Iloilo, and Cebu.
Hoping to see you again on the 3rd Sunday of January. January 14 - 15 is the Highlights of the Festival. You can see there All the Tribal Groups. Keepsafe always Mate! See you on January.
Hi! these are the dates for January Festival. 2nd week of Jan. - Ati-Atihan Festival 3rd week of Jan. - Sinulog Festival 4th week of Jan. - Dinagyang Festival the highlights of the said date is every sunday of the week and this is an opening salvo I think. Enjoy! and can wait to see you here in Iloilo City. Stay safe.
JUST TO CORRECT THIS: The main event or the Highlights of Ati-atihan Festival will Fall on the THIRD WEEK OF JANUARY. No offense to the ones who posted this comment. Please correct your mistake. Thank you.
Thanks for sharing guys. I so much wanted to be there. Six more months of the grind and I’m free to go when I want. I know you’re moving to Iloilo, but are you going to cover Ati-Atihan in January? I hope so. Then you can hit Dinagyang after. Thanks again and safe travels. FER
It's been a couple years so it doesn't show in my history on Amazon but if you search mens over shoulder bag on Amazon you'll see tons very much the same

3rd week of January is the festival here in kalibo.
A long week of celebration which each day is different and the best thing on that is you can dance before or after the bands.
Ati Atihan, Dinagyang and Sinulog are all January Festivals. They are for the Señor Sto Niño or the babay Jesus. October is for Masskara in Bacolod.
Wait until you see the Iloilo;s Ati-Atihan/Dinagyang festival in January. There are different competing tribes. Each make their own costumes and they choreograph their own dance moves and drum beats!

oh. atiatihan is in january isnt now? ive been to that festival five years in a row and what an experience those were! the beat was faster abd more intense that what i saw and heard in this video with shouts of "hala bira" and "viva senor sto nino" and " pit senor" echoing. this made me feel nostalgic
This is the opening Salvo for the festival's as it was explained to us. It was amazing
Just an opening salvo
It is a 1 week celebration every 3rd week of January.
