DINAGSA FESTIVAL SCHEDULE OF ACTIVITIES
Contents
Just like many provinces that celebrate a festival in honor of the Sto Nino every January, Cadiz City has its unique rendition of this event, dating back to the year 1972.
Known as the Dinagsa Festival, this vibrant celebration was conceived by members of the Samaria House Council of Cadiz City, a lay religious organization within the Catholic Church. The term “Dinagsa” was crafted about a historical incident when numerous whales washed ashore in the city; “dagsa” translates to driftage. This occurrence has also bestowed upon Cadiz City the moniker “The City of Whales.”

“Dinagsa” emerged as a response from the church council to a prevalent local custom where, instead of paying homage to their Patron Saint, residents engaged in activities like gambling and cockfighting. In a proactive effort to redirect the focus towards expressions of gratitude and praise, the founding fathers of Cadiz Ati-Atihan, led by Msgr. Vicente Salgado, the then Parish Priest of the Sto. Niño Parish sought to create a celebration that truly honored their Patron without the need for such activities. This initiative marked the historic inception of the Cadiz City Ati-Atihan Festival.

A distinctive highlight of this festival is the “Lamhitanay sa Dalan,” where revelers willingly embrace the smudging of latex paint on their faces. This stands in contrast to the Sinulog in Kabankalan, where festival-goers traditionally use charcoal to mark their faces.
A friendly reminder: wear attire that you wouldn’t mind getting stained or ruined by the paint during the festivities.

Every civilization has a unique culture. For example, in Cadis City, where many people visit every January to experience the culture, there are many diverse cultural practices. Because of that culture’s variety, we are able to come together and appreciate life as a whole even if we come from diverse cultural backgrounds. 3 justifications for the significance of company culture. First, it’s important to understand our various societal roles; each civilization assigns its citizens a unique role that must be understood in order for individuals to easily adapt to that society. Second, we should be able to adapt to other people’s ideas and cultures regardless of our own, as this is the only way we can demonstrate our shared humanity and tolerance. The final step is to concentrate on the goals that our society has set for itself.

Cadiz City is renowned for maintaining its arts and culture. Understanding corporate culture is crucial, in my opinion, since it helps us manage employees, clients, and suppliers more effectively. Our ability to handle these three entities and comprehend how they interact with one another depends on our ability to comprehend these three entities.
Corporate culture refers to the common attitudes, values, and standards that exist among members of an organization. It is an intangible component of the overall atmosphere of a company. The daily decisions made by the employees of an organization are influenced by the corporate culture. Any firm can benefit from having a good understanding of corporate culture by giving them an edge in their sector of the market or industry.
Wow! There’s a lot of beautiful spot to visit in Cadiz City! 🙂
