Should there be any “naughty merrymakers”, there will be a ‘mobile jail’ ready courtesy of the Bureau of Jail Management and Penology , instead of the previous caged container vans.

“To everyone who will be coming, from Iloilo City and Iloilo province and other provinces, to the Dinagyang Festival 2023, we are all set with the security plans for implementation, and starting on [January 13], we will be establishing border control operations outside and in between Oton, Pavia, and Leganes towns,” Obregon shared.

A portion of the Benigno Aquino Jr. Avenue in Mandurriao district , from Taft North intersection to San Rafael intersection, will be fully closed starting at 5:00 p.m. for the evening ‘ILOmination’ event on January 21, with possibility of closing as early as 2:00 p.m.They will be reopened once the last contingents have already passed through, and Conlu says that they expect this to be at 9:00 p.m.

Papa likewise reminded visitors to unplug all electrical appliances, secure all valuables in safe places, and eat their breakfast prior to going to the festival area, citing fatigue and hypoglycemia in past years.
