Kasadyahan sa Capiz Guyum-guyuman Festival
Guyum-guyuman is one also of the kasadyahan here in Capiz. It
is started as Balintawakan Festival in 1988, it was renamed Guyum-guyuman
Festival in 2008 to depict the way of life of the inhabitants of this town
formerly called “Caguyuman.” This literally means "anthill" because
many people from neighboring municipalities came to the area like a swarm of
ants for commerce and trade. Barter trading is still practiced in the
municipality during Market days.
The
town’s annual municipal and religious fiesta last May 8, 2012 was highlighted
by a series of events. The most notable ones were the reenactment of
Caguyumanons like barter trading, the exciting Subay sa Suba sang Tinagong Dagat,
mangrove rehabilitation-planting activities, awarding of notable outstanding
Pontevedrahons citizens and organizations plus the spectacular Guyum-guyuman
tribal streetdancing and also, the search for the Kaguyuman Festival Queen and
the grand coronation of the town’s ambassadress of Goodwill, the Pontevedra
Fiesta Queen.
Capping
the memorable festival was the high booming speakers around the town streets
blasting disco hits all night and promoting merrymaking with fiesta revelers
dancing in celebration.
