Valued cultures and traditions, best known for the province of Ilocos Sur . Every first week of February, the much-awaited festival of Ilocos Sur is being celebrated. The Kannawidan Festival 2011. The meaning of that word I think is "nakagawian." All municipalities of Ilocos Sur were recquired to let somebody see their famous product, in the other term, it is One City, One Product that is why every year, a trade fare was launched.
Different contested activities were casted. Of course, the theme was all about the old and preserved cultures and traditions of Ilocos Sur. The location of the trade fare and all activities was here in Vigan. During every night, lot of artists performed infront of the Ilocos Sur Capitol.
I was impressed and full of admiration to the place called, The Land of the Free-ILOCOS SUR.

Vigan City Fiesta 2011
It has been 10 years that Biguenos are celebrating the Cityhood of Vigan. Celebrating the fiesta is such a great triumph and pride especially to the people of Vigan City . Biguenos are very proud of the said celebration because the fiesta is for the conversion of St. Paul, patron of the said City. The City celebrates its fiesta in every 25th day of January but actually it started from January 16 and it ended last January 31, 2011.
Different activities were conducted by the City. The Longganisa Festival: street dancing and showdown competition, Students and Teachers Got Talent, Carabao Painting and many more. The Vigan City launched the Grand Parade on January 25, where different organizations, institutions, schools and establishments participated in the said parade. Last January 26, the Sangguniang Kabataan Officials had their Float Parade Competition around the City. During the night, the search for Ms. Vigan Youth Ambassadress was launched. 19 SK officials from the different barangays competed for the crown. The winner was from Mindoro, Vigan City.
As a 16 year-old Bigueno, who was used to witness this celebration, wants to congratulate Mayor Eva Marie S. Medina for making Vigan City Fiesta 2011 possible and to those people who helped in the preparation of the said celebration.
Without them, we will not be able to witness and experience the valued cultures and traditions of Vigan City.
