Babaylan Festival @ Bago, Negros Occidental

BABAYLAN FESTIVAL is a newly conceptualized activity by the City of Bago, Negros Occidental. It is being celebrated during the Charter Anniversary every 19th of February. The festival is based on the rituals performed by the Babaylans, like rituals on marriage, baptism, healing, harvest and others. Babaylans get their healing powers from the unseen spirits. Dancing, singing, and drumming to these spirits are standard, as the people are adorned in intricate and beautiful costumes.
