Photo Op: Aliwan Fiesta Today

May 3, 2008 By 1 Comment

Roxas Boulevard’s south bound lane from Manila Hotel to Vito Cruz will be closed to traffic today, Saturday, May 3, 2008 from 2PM to 9PM to give way to the Aliwan Fiesta Parade.

Delegates from various provinces will take part in this grand cultural showcase.

The streetdance competition has become a fierce battleground where color, pomp, and pageantry converge to define the Aliwan Fiesta as grassroots theatre at its very best. With this in mind, Manila Broadcasting has designated “Sayaw, Padyak, Indak” as the theme for this year’s Photography Competition.

You can check out more info on the photo contest at Anton Sheker’s Blogalicious.
