It hasn't been long enough since they started to celebrate the Kannawidan Festival. Like the Panagbenga Festival in Baguio, City Ati- atihan Festival in Kalibo, Aklan and Sinulog Festival in Cebu, Kannawidan also lived up to its mission and vision to preserve its costumes, and cultural, traditional heritage as well as to patronage and promote its products.
In this fourth year of celebrating this said festivity, the provincial government made it more prestigious and bigger so as to attract more tourists and most especially to publicize its product and cultures. Also, Kannawidan does not only wish to help promote Ylocos but also to offer more jobs to the people.
There's not only one highlight of this event because the provincial government prepared more than what you could ever wish for. There is the "Tawid Ug-ugali Ilocano" (Ilocano Heritage Tradition)--presentation of the folk and cultural dances of Ilocanos; the Agri- trade Fair, Food Festival, Band Concerts, Concert for a Cause which presents the idols and stars of this generation, Zarzuela Ilocana, Bituen ti Ylocos, Saniata ti Ilocos Sur-- a pageant for the Ilocana Beauties. Also, there is the One Town, One Product (OTOP).
Kannawidan presents it very unique events to the public. Since there are a lot of people joining this, it will not only help our cultures and traditions but also helps in the rising of the province's economic progress.
