Hibalag Festival King and Queen 2017
Silliman University
Another year has passed and the celebration of Hibalag Festival continues to motivate the different fields of Silliman University in reaching their goals. As a festival, the search for the Hibalag King and Queen is necessary to more or less rule the festival.
Hibalag Festival
The search for the Hibalag Festival King and Queen 2017 was held last night, August 22. After the basic prayer, introductions and reading of criteria, it was show time! Eight pairs representing their course and fields in the university dance the night away in their colorful festival costumes. Colors of red, white, green, yellow and blue filled the night as they danced in and around the stage.
The eight paired contestants were assigned a festival in which they will portrait during the competition. Some of the island festival they showcased includes those of Siquijor, Bohol, Davao, Leyte, Samar, Surigao and Agusan.
After the festival dance showdown, it was time for the most crucial portion of any pageant – Question and Answer. As a Hibalag King or Queen, one must possess both skills and wits. The contestants were asked to line up around the center of the stage as they were questioned pair by pair. The Masters of Ceremonies (MC) did their part in making the show smooth and keeping the contestants calm their nerves.
With the question and answer portion over, the contestants relaxed and waited for the results from the judges. Congratulations to the new Hibalag Festival King and Queen 2017!!!
