Banaag Festival lights up Anilao every last week of October (usually October 31) — its name literally means “glow” — when the town’s streets and plaza turn into a moving patchwork of torches, lanterns and neon-lit costumes.

Tribal-style dance troupes, school groups and civic teams march in drum-driven performances that place fire and light at the heart of the story, while neighbors gather to watch and join the procession.

The lights do more than dazzle: they stand as a symbol of hope for the community, and what began as a local night-time pageant is now a beloved town tradition known for its bold use of illumination and performance.

Estancia Fish Port is the bustling heart of northern Iloilo’s fishing industry — a busy landing site and market where banca and commercial boats bring in daily catches from the rich Visayan Sea.

Long known as a center for commercial fishing on Panay, Estancia’s port supports local livelihoods and supplies seafood across the region.

The town of Pavia marked its annual Tigkaralag celebration with an evening of theatrical dance-drama Saturday, as costumed performers from across the town used movement and spectacle to tell stories of community resilience and local tradition.

The main attraction remained the theatrical dance-drama competition: barangay contingents paraded at dusk and then staged tightly choreographed pieces that blended folklore, historical episodes, and contemporary themes of survival and recovery. The festival — a long-running town tradition held each Oct. 30 — continues to be a showcase for creativity, with participating groups turning local myths and memories into dramatic performances.

Beyond entertainment, Tigkaralag has been credited with keeping youth engaged in community arts and preserving local stories for new generations. As night fell, streets around the town plaza filled with residents and visitors, turning the festival into both a cultural display and a communal act of remembrance.
