Sinulog Festival 2013 Schedule in Cebu City

Next year will be the most-awaited festival in Cebu City. I can hear the sound "Viva Pit Senyor Sto Niño". The Cebu Sinulog Festival experience is awesome so booked your flight a head of time. You will probably enjoy and witness this festival of Cebuano. Every year of January in Cebu City they are celebrating this festival to honor the Santo Niño (or the child Jesus) who is the patron saint of the whole province of Cebu. Aside from the festival what to expect? Well, get to taste the number 1 delicacy in town and that is LECHON! Cebu is also known for chicharon, puso, torta, bibingka and other local foods. You've got to try at least one of it when you visit the place. Here are the schedule date for Sinulog Festival 2013 in Cebu City. The festival will started from January 11, 2013 until January 20, 2013 ( third sunday of January 2013 ). During the third sunday of January there will have this street dancing competition which people enjoy the dance and the beat of the drums. This was the photos of last Sinulog Festival 2012.
