THEMATIC PROJECT:

SPREE

    Filipinos are without a doubt the most festive people on the planet. Christmas music begins to play on radio stations as early as September 1st, signaling the beginning of the holiday season. Every city and town in the Philippines celebrates the holiday season in its own unique way. The annual unveiling of the Christmas tree in Vigan, a World Heritage City, attracts a large crowd of locals. The Christmas season has here, and like any other city in the globe, Vigan has its own style of marking the occasion, one of which is by adorning publish buildings and structures.

We are shaped by the traditions, beliefs, and culture that our ancestors left behind. This aspect has a significant impact on who we are as a country. These are the primary reasons why we continue to encourage people to celebrate the birth of Jesus in the midst of the pandemic. We observe the simbang gabi, during which we attend nine mass services in the evenings or early mornings. We also have caroling, but due to the pandemic, this is limited. However, we still have the opportunity to sing a Christmas song and receive money, and we can do so even with our family. During celebrations, parties on the street, notably along the famed cobbled stone Calle Crisologo and its nearby streets are nearly a folk institution. When it comes to upholding a basic public health standard, seeing a flock of Biguenious is not as prevalent as it was before the pandemic. Our traditional people of Biguenious of honoring the birth of the messiah - Jesus Christ - would always have limited festivities as a new normal movement and relaxation among people could not hampered.

    On December 12, 2021, various families with five members participated in this year's Sa May Bahay-Christmas Carol Competition, where each entry was allowed to choose any Christmas song with acoustic or recycled accompaniment to further entice Biguenious families and discern the true essence of Christmas in the midst of the pandemic. Because editing and the use of enhancers and microphones were disallowed, the video's quality, blending, and authenticity were evaluated to select the winners. The Christmas Dokyu Film Competition and Santa Baby–Photography Competition will take place on December 13, 2021, and will showcase the city's diverse film fans as well as charming Biguenious children. Children's Christmas stories were featured in the short films, which ranged in length from three to six minutes. The City Government's many offices and divisions proceeded to bring the Christmas season and happy vibes into their individual workplaces by putting up recycled Christmas trees. During an online casual interview on December 16, 2021, twelve equally young and talented females competed in this year's Little Miss Santa Claus, where the contenders stepped up and exhibited electronically their Christmas-inspired outfits, talents, and wit during a virtual Christmas-inspired interview. Instead of allowing the public to attend this year's opening ceremony, the City's official Facebook page allows them to view it live online. The public's ability to attend this year's opening ceremony has been restricted due to the epidemic, but they can watch it live online via the City's official Facebook Page. During this pandemic, every Biguenious and Ilocano is surrounded with a massive, glittering Christmas Tree that inspires hope and optimism. With the new normal set-up of most events being done online and others with limited participants to comply with the City Covid-19 Task Force's Minimum Health Standards, the Christmas vibes in Vigan continued last December 07-17, 2021 as the annual Artes Ita Paskua of the City Government of Vigan got its way.

    The most difficult battle we are currently fighting is the pandemic, but a year without Christmas is no longer a whole year. Hold on to God since he is the one person we can rely on in times of need. As a result, it stressed that the City pushed through the celebration in order to give hope to the Biguenious and to allow them to still feel the Christmas spirit in these difficult times. In spite of the fear of a pandemic, a Biguenious Family is able to see and understand the genuine meaning of Christmas. The giving of gifts is part of a meaningful Christmas celebration. For Christians, Christmas represents Jesus. Also, Christ is a love symbol.
