Home for Kadayawan Festival Chelsea Manalo
The Kadayawan Festival in Davao City, known as the "King of Festivals," is a lively celebration highlighting the area's rich cultural tapestry. Running from August 7 to 18, this year's festival promises to be a sensory delight, drawing in both locals and tourists eager to dive into Davao's vibrant traditions.

Embracing Diversity

Central to the Kadayawan Festival is the tribute to the 11 indigenous tribes of Davao, including the Bagobo-Tagabawa, Sama, Ata, Tausug, Bagobo, Iranun, Kagan, Maranao, Matigsalug, Obu Manuvu, and Maguindanaon. This contemporary take on their traditional harvest festival showcases the beauty and strength of these communities.

PLDT Home proudly collaborated with the festival and hosted various exciting events, including the highly anticipated Hiyas ng Kadayawan pageant. On August 16, Jane Rose Miones, representing the Bagobo-Plata tribe, was crowned "Hiyas ng PLDT." This unique pageant aims to celebrate the modern Davaoeña who exemplifies the qualities of an ideal role model, highlighting the talents and cultural heritage of women from all 11 tribes.

Special Guests and Exclusive Offers

On August 17, Miss Universe Philippines 2024, Chelsea Manalo, attended a media luncheon to discuss PLDT Home's initiatives during the festival. She introduced the Kadayawan Festival Sale, featuring a P3,600 discount on Fiber Unli All Plan 1399 installations throughout August. After the luncheon, Manalo visited the PLDT Smart Ponciano Store and the NCCC Mall Victoria Plaza Booth, wrapping up her day at the PLDT Home main booth in Ramon Magsaysay Park.

PLDT Home set up booths in key locations throughout the festival. The Fiber Unli All Plan 1399 now offers double the speed, providing 100 Mbps for quicker streaming and video editing, along with an upgraded Unli Fam Call feature for unlimited calls and texts within the family.

The Kadayawan Festival is not just about lively dances and colorful outfits; it’s also a culinary adventure. Davao's food scene beautifully blends indigenous, Malay, and Spanish influences. From the distinctive durian to the popular pomelo, the region boasts an array of fresh produce. Seafood lovers can enjoy grilled delicacies like inihaw na panga, while the adventurous might want to sample crocodile sisig. Coffee aficionados can relish the unique flavors of beans grown in Mount Apo.

Experience the Celebration

With around 250,000 visitors expected this year, the Kadayawan Festival is a vibrant homage to Davao's rich cultural heritage. Street dancers, dressed in colorful, intricately woven costumes, fill the streets with their rhythmic movements during the Indak-Indak sa Kadalan, a street dancing competition that serves as a heartfelt tribute to a bountiful harvest.

I was impressed to learn about ePLDT's success stories right here in Mindanao. RD Pawnshop in Davao utilized VITRO to safeguard their data outside the city, while educational institutions like Holy Cross College of Davao, University of Immaculate Concepcion, and Davao Medical School Foundation have also leveraged ePLDT's solutions. Additionally, Parasat Cable in Cagayan de Oro uses ePLDT's ViX or VITRO Internet Exchange to provide high-quality service to their gaming customers.
