GLAN, Sarangani (PIA) — Glan’s Mahin Festival kicks off vacation fun in Sarangani with another series of summer activities that would climax with a sunset-to-sunrise beach party in the famed Sarangani Bay Fest next month to be held in the white sands of Gumasa. | |||
The successful maiden celebration of Mahin Festival last year triggered expectations of a bigger crowd to the three-day festivity which started yesterday, April 19, until April 21. | |||
Lumba sa Kabayo (horse race), Palupad Tabanog (kite flying), Bangkarera (boat race), Pintados (body painting), beach volleyball and football, Bikini Open, concerts (featuring Blakdyak) and fireworks display are the lined-up activities that are certain to fire up the excitement of local folks. | |||
Yesterday’s events were held at The Grove Beach in barangay Tango while in the next two days, it will be at the Coco Beach in Gumasa. | |||
Mahin is a festival unique to the town of Glan which brings back traditional beach activities the townsfolk have been fond of doing since then like horse racing at the shoreline. | |||
