The Queen City of the South, Cebu, is not only home to the country’s most scenic views and attractions, but it is also the venue of one of the grandest festivals in the world.
Aside from being a business hub and center for leisure, the city is known for the Fiesta Señor— a weeklong celebration that commemorates the Feast of the Sto. Niño.
As you attend Novena Masses at the Basilica Minore del Santo Niño de Cebu, there are also various ways to celebrate the 457th Fiesta Señor in January.
Kicking off the new year, Cebu is loaded with AweSM and safe events from exhibits, local product offerings, to Sinulog happenings that you can enjoy with your family and friends.
As we celebrate Sinulog 2022 with hope and cheer of the fresh year, here are seven significant events this January at SM Seaside City Cebu’s one-stop festival experience- AweSM Cebu from January 7 to 16, 2022.

Santo Niño: Gasa sa Katawhang Pilipinhon
Every Fiesta Señor celebration, Cebuanos take their Sto. Niño images to the Basilica Minore del Santo Niño de Cebu, which makes the celebration more meaningful as you see devotees dancing to the “Pit Senyor!” chant with their personal Sto. Niño images and statues.
