The Kasadyahan Festival is a cultural festival that is part of the larger Dinagyang Festival held annually on the fourth Saturday of January in Iloilo City, Philippines. It precedes the main highlight of Dinagyang, the Ati Tribes Competition, which takes place the following day on Sunday. It is a competition among cultural festivals from different cities and towns in the Western Visayas region.[1]
The festival has also been known and rebranded as Kasadyahan sa Kabanwahanan since the Iloilo provincial government's takeover from the city government as the host in 2024, showcasing different competing festivals from across the province.[2]
