The Dinagyang Festival is celebrated every January to honor the Christianization of the natives and pay respect to Holy Child Jesus. One of the highlights of the festival is the street dancing in honor of the patron saint Sto. Niño. Different tribes perform their dance as an offering and prayer together with the cracking of drums and shouts of "Viva Señor Santo Niño." The loud shouts of "Hala Bira" by the ATI Tribe warriors make the celebration very lively.
