Diyandi Festival

Diyandi is a ritual performed by an all-female group outside the Cathedral during the Pagkanaug, before every novena and before the start of the Komedya, or Comedia de San Miguel. It culminates into an offering symbolic to St. Michael the Archangel's victory against Lucifer. The ritual aptly describes the peaceful co-existence of Iligan’s tri-people – Maranaos, Higaonons and Christians.Diyandi Festival is the official title for Iligan City’s month-long cultural celebration. This grand celebration is concluded by the feast day of the city’s Patron Saint – Saint Michael the Archangel, known locally as “Senior San Miguel” on the 29th day in the months of September. The Archangel is considered by the Iliganons (locals) as the protector against the evil and the healer of the sick.
