The Grand Showdown of the Sinulog 2019 
features contingents from Cebu City and Cebu province 
as well as contingents from different parts 
of the Philippines. 
It was the highlight of the Grand Festival 
that happened at the Cebu City Sports Center 
​on the 20th of January, the 3rd Sunday of the month. 

The Sinulog Festival in Cebu City, Philippines 
is a popular cultural and religious annual event
happening every 3rd Sunday of January 
that draws not just hundreds of thousands 
but millions of visitors, tourists and devotees
from various parts of the Philippines 
and from all over the world. 
​
That's why security is so much tighter than any time of the year
ensuring safety for everyone.

The Sinulog Festival 2019 in Cebu City, Philippines 
will be on January 20 (every 3rd Sunday of January) 
and the full list of contingents is here 
as released by the Sinulog Foundation Inc.. 

Every year during Sinulog and for all time to come, 
I join these Solemn Processions: 
Walk With Jesus, Walk With Mary 
and the Solemn Procession a day before the Sinulog day. 
And of the three processions, 
I have always found it more fulfilling 
joining the afternoon procession.

During the 454th Fiesta Señor 2019, 
please be guided by these directional map of
and pedestrian flow at the Basilica Minore del Santo Niño de Cebu 
so that you won't be wasting time going in and out.
