Discover the Romblon Biniray Festival: A Cultural Feast Beyond the Beaches
Romblon Island is more than just a paradise of pristine beaches and turquoise waters—it’s a treasure trove of culture, art, and history waiting to be explored. One of the most vibrant celebrations that showcases the island’s heritage is the Biniray Festival, happening every January 10–20.
The Biniray Festival honors Romblon’s patron saint, Señor Santo Niño, blending religious devotion with cultural festivities. The highlight is a fluvial parade, where the image of the Santo Niño is paraded across the sea, followed by lively street dances that fill the town with music, color, and joy.
But the festival doesn’t stop at the streets—there’s so much more to experience!
Night Market and Local Arts
During the festival, Romblon’s night market comes alive with local street-food, handcrafted goods, and vibrant energy. Wander through the stalls, and you’ll find everything from agricultural produce to unique souvenirs that capture the essence of the island.
For art lovers, the marble sculptor's competition is a must-see. Romblon is famous for its high-quality marble, and during the festival, the island’s talented sculptors transform stone into breathtaking works of art. These creations, along with local paintings and other artworks, are often available for purchase—making it the perfect chance to take home a piece of Romblon’s creative soul.
