On January 18, 2015, the grandest cultural celebration of the Cebuanos was a great success. An estimated spectators of about 2.5 million joined the celebration of the Sinulog Grand Street Parade.
In the early morning of the street parade, people started to gather around the 5-kilometer parade routes. As one of the spectators, getting shoved and pushing yourself to get a closer view was a part of the fest. If you want to capture some good photos, you will have to evade the policemen and crowd control staff.
The streets went colorful when the performers started their presentations with their wide-smiles and dazzling costumes. Aside from the street performers were the "higantes" and beautiful floats. According to some sources, there were 134 groups who joined the street parade.
Some celebrities also joined the parade where they rode on some of the beautiful floats. But among all the celebrities, the charming Mommy Dionesa (Manny Pacquiao's mother) receives the loudest applause.
Congratulations to all the winners of the Sinulog 2015 competitions.
