The whole afternoon is highlighted by the Sinaot, a street-dancing to the tune of the Latin beat garbed in colourful Carribean costume.

The Sinaot at President Roxas, inspired by the Masskara Festival of Bacolod and the Halaran of the province of Capiz, started in 1988 during the administration of Mayor Ramon C. Locsin with Sangguniang Bayan Member Jonathan B. Diosaban as the first Sinaot chairman. Since then, the festival became the centrepiece of the towns’ annual municipal and religious fiesta drawing an increasing number of tourists and “balikbayans”.
