Highlight of Dinagyang Festival will be held on 23-25 of January 2009. Parades of dancing team with unique costume go through central Iloilo City namely Iznart, JM Basa (Calle Real), etc.

Dinagyang Festival has started since 1969 when a replica of Sr. Santo Nino sent to San Jose Parish Church in 1968.
