Kasadyahan is the cultural competition staged as part of Iloilo City’s Dinagyang Festival season each January. Participating groups from towns and provinces in Western Visayas present dances and performances that portray local history, folklore, and ways of life, adding a regional showcase to the Santo Niño celebrations.
Held alongside the Ati tribe competition, Kasadyahan gives visiting performers a stage in Iloilo City and lets audiences see traditions from beyond the city in a single event. It is one of the reasons Dinagyang weekend feels like a gathering of cultures from across the region.
