Yag-yag Festival - Negros Oriental Attractions

Yag-yag Festival

 Every last Sunday of April | Sibulan

 

The festival is based on the spawning ritual performed by thousands of land crabs such as the cagang and alalasan along the shores and riverbanks of Barangay Cangmating during the last quarter of the year.

 

With the beat of the drums, the performers mimic the land crabs' characteristics through a dance in a pageantry of colorful costumes.
