Pistay Dayat Festival 2014

Pista’y Dayat Festival (sea festival) is a thanksgiving festival observed every April in Lingayen, Pangasinan. It celebrates the bountiful harvest and abundant fishing from the sea. The events feature mass offering on beautiful beaches and fluvial parade. From being a local thanksgiving festival, Pista’y Dayat has grown into Pangasinan’s grandest festivity.
