We know how nature can be moody sometimes right? That is why it is important to prepare yourself.

This may seem like a mom’s advice but hey, it’s all for the sake of being safe and enjoying the festival!

Preferably, people should bring fans. Since the whole city will be crowded with people, it’s expected that the temperature is going to be hot-rain or shine. There are also battery-operated mini-fans which saves you time and effort from manually cooling yourself. Of course, get a water jug that can keep your water cool for a long time instead of buying unclean water or overpriced bottled waters from the vendors. An umbrella or a raincoat is pretty useful too, no matter what the weather is.

Even if you have the things prepared for the weather, it won’t grant you a good Sinulog Festival experience. Before the grand festival, make sure you have a good night’s sleep. Nothing beats being well rested than having to walk around sleepless! Take some vitamin C the night before or even the week before so that you don’t catch any diseases or viruses from the crowd. Bring some paracetamol, adhesive bandages and a small bottle of antiseptic liquid in your bag. You never know when you’ll get a headache or a cut from the festival. Bring a sanitizer too! It will be tempting to eat finger food so make sure you have clean hands.

By following these tips, you can save yourself from being wet in the rain or being exhausted from the heat of the crowd and the sun! Hope you don’t catch a fever this Sinulog!

Be safe and enjoy!
