Kalilangan Festival 2017 Kadsagayan Street Dancing Competition Winners

A total of seven (7) contingents competed in this year's Kadsagayan, the street dancing competition of Kalilangan Festival in the City of General Santos.

The competition which was held last February 27 attracted thousands of residents and visitors who patiently waited in Gensan's major streets and at the Oval Plaza where the showdown of contingents and the closing ceremony of Kalilangan Festival 2017 was held.

Street dancing contingents came from different parts of the region such as from Matalam, Cotabato Province; Kiamba, Sarangani; Tantangan, South Cotabato and General Santos City. They all showcased the rich culture & traditions of the place where they came from and portrayed in their performances the arrival of General Paulino Santos and how the tri-people- the Muslims, Christians, and Lumads and also people of other nationalities co-existed and live harmoniously in the city.
