The Ati-atihan Festival is on-going now in Kalibo, Aklan, Panay Island. I have been invited so many times by a good friend to go attend the Ati-atihan festival, but until now have not been able to go. I have been to Kalibo thrice already but never on the time of the festival, these were when I went to Boracay Island, Kalibo being the gateway to Boracay. Definitely Asia's best, wildest festival and Mardi Gras. Ati-atihan Festival is proof that Filipinos know how to party and have a good time. The religious celebration that started this festival has been going on for hundreds of years in the Island of Panay.
