Cebu City, Philippines – Aside from the dancing contingents, spectators should also watch out for Filipino celebrities who will be joining the Sinulog Festival 2019 Grand Parade on January 20, Sunday.
GMA Network will have a powerhouse line-up with “Cain at Abel” stars Dingdong Dantes, Dennis Trillo, Sanya Lopez, and Solenn Heussaff, who will board the Kapuso float during the parade.
“Excited ako kasi first time ko mag Sinulog pero second time ko na sa Cebu. Na e-excite ako tomorrow lalo na sa parade,” Lopez told the members of Cebu Entertainment Group.
Lopez also revealed that she wants to visit the Basilica Minore del Santo Niño de Cebu.
Just like Lopez, Trillo is also excited to meet and celebrate Sinulog Festival with Cebuano fans.
“Excited po ako dahil kadalasan pag pumupunta po kami dito for Sinulog, ako lagi parang isang araw lang tapos mall show lang,” he said.
It will also be Trillo’s first time to board the Kapuso float and witness the Sinulog parade route filled with revelers.
For Dantes, he is looking forward to a new Sinulog experience in the future.
“Siguro madalas pumupunta for Sinulog it is either sa mall show or sa parada while on board the float. Nakikita namin gaano kasaya ang mga tao sa kalsada talaga eh. Isa sa mga gusto ko na mangyari in the future eh talaga yung nasa street and experiencing the real thing and stay for more than a day,” Dantes said.
This is Dantes’ third time in Cebu City for the Sinulog Festival.
Heussaff describes her Sinulog Festival experiences as fun.
“I hope na ma experience din namin soon ang sa streets,” she added.
