The biggest and most famous festival in the Philippines, held in Cebu City. The Sinulog celebrates the Santo Nino (the Holy Child Jesus) and commemorates the Filipino people's acceptance of Christianity. The festival features a grand procession, a street dance competition with dancers in bright costumes, and the tradition of shouting "Pit Senyor!" The Sinulog dance is a two-step forward, one-step-back movement that mimics the current of the river (sulog in Cebuano). Dancers carry candles and sway to the beat of drums. The festival attracts over 3 million people and has been celebrated since the 1500s.
