Longganisa Festival | A Colorful Vigan City Fiesta

Posted: January 27, 2013 in ARTS, FESTIVALS, Ilocos (Region 1), Ilocos Sur, Luzon, Philippines, VIGAN
“The Longganisa Festival marks the opening of a year-long cultural celebration in Vigan.”

Longganisa Festival is the first festivity celebrated in Vigan every year which usually happens every 22nd of January, the date of the cityhood of Vigan. However, Januray 25 is the exact date of the Vigan City fiesta, also the date of the conversion of the city’s patron saint, St. Paul.

Without too much ado, allow me to share to you my Longganisa Festival experience by posting these humble photos.
