Kannawidan Festival: A Must See Celebration in Ilocos Sur



The Kannawidan Festival is a festival that celebrates every year by Ilocanos in commemorating the separation of the Ilocos provinces in 1818. The word Kannawidan is a variant of the Ilocano word "tawid" meaning heritage or inheritance. It showcases the indigenous performances, religious performances, and also cooking demos featuring the best of Ilocano dishes.

Right before the Pandemic, Kannawidan is one of the most awaited annual celebrations in the province of Ilocos Sur. It includes major activities and events for community participation like Fun run, Art competition, Street dancing, Saniata ti Ilocos Sur and many more fun activities and events.

Kannawidan Festival is rich in culture and has a sense of identity among all Ilocanos committed to ensuring the conversion, presentation, and promotion of the iloco cultural, artistic, historical, and intellectual heritage. There is a great impact along economic, social, and cultural on the lives of the Ilocano at present and even in the past centuries. Administrators of the festivals must always be present in monitoring the situations of the participants
