PHOTOGRAPHY and WORDS BY MARIANO SAYNO

This festival, known as “Tayo na sa Antipolo Maytime Festival”, is one of the most popular celebrations in the Philippines due to the fact that Antipolo, Rizal is known for its Marian image of Our Lady of Peace and Good Voyage, which is also called Virgin of Antipolo. This yearly Antipolo festival is based on the popular folk song “Tayo na sa Antipolo” that has been sung for decades and aims to promote the local culture, destinations, and famous products of the city, such as suman, manga, and kasoy.

There are several interesting points about this annual event that make this celebration of Antipolo unique and interesting. Firstly, it is a month-long celebration that includes the Unang Prusisyon ritual, the Santacruzan rituals, as well as a streetdance competition and historical tour as part of it. A walking pilgrimage is also a part of the program, where thousands of pilgrims take part in the religious festivities. During the festival, mostly locals from Manila and other nearby cities attend the event as they travel to Antipolo from their homes to take part in the celebrations.
