After
the successful Kalibo Sto. Niño Ati-Atihan Festival celebration, Ibajay residents
are now busy preparing for the Ati-atihan revelry this January 25, 2015.
According
to Aireen Alag of Ibajay Mayor’s Office, “now they are just having their Municipal
Day participated by different Barangays in the municipality.”
She
said, “Ibajay is considered by expert as the original version of the
Ati-atihan, even older than that of Kalibo.”
"Right
now, we are more ready for the Sto. Ati-atihan. We have already started
decorating Ibajay with Ati-atihan signages and other decorations," She
added.
After this there will be a parade of participant’s tribes
from the different barangays of the town before the mass presentation at the
Plaza.
Aside
from these, towns that are also celebrating their own version of the Ati-atihan
festival are Altavas, Makato, New Washington, Malinao and even Boracay Island.
