Dancers representing various municipalities of Camiguin do the Sajaw Kinamigin, which interprets the legend of the lanzones fruit and infuses ethnic music from Lumad indigenous peoples such as the Manobo, Bagobo, Subanen, and Tboli tribes. The street competition was the highlight of the recent 44th Lanzones Festival, one of the country’s longest-running cultural festivities, held in the island Province of Camiguin in northern Mindanao. Named after the tropical seasonal fruit, which is reputed to be the sweetest of its kind in the archipelago, this year’s two-week celebration is among the festival’s most extended editions with its vast array of special events to lure tourists in the post-pandemic season. According to Gov. Xavier Jesus Romualdo, this year’s celebration is marked by a bumper harvest, which has already netted over 1 million kilograms as of the first week of October based on data collated by the provincial agriculture office from local growers.
