Milton Keynes Barrio Fiesta - Sat 25th & Sun 26th June

[Rosie1958]

hi there Rosie, like you i have never been to one before yesterday, we went to coventry, the weather was so so, very windy, i had no idea what to expect but there was people selling phone cards, lots , apartments, houses and so on lots of food being cooked and a stage were there was singers and dancers, not many people there maybe because the weather,

Thanks for that Steve, gives me some idea of what to expect

@Rosie, we shall be going to MK not sure how is best to get the Forum members to meet there? Maybe boss Keith needs a stall !!! ........

I haven't been to a fiesta before so I'm not sure how many people attend these events or what to suggest but it would be lovely to meet up with anyone from this forum and in particular the two Alan's, Lyn and Jennie with her daughter who have confirmed their attendance. Does anyone have any suggestions? I guess that I will be easier to spot than most being a British female since my photo on here is a fairly good likeness and I will be with my filipina sister in law and 7 year old nephew.

I will be going to this Barrio Rosie, Alan showed me where it will be...nice that its close to the shopping if the weather is not so kind
Be nice to meet friends from this forum there

Hi Lynn ........ There are plenty of shops in MK if the weather is poor so I hope that Alan brings his wallet to treat you! Hopefully, the weather will be good to us and we can introduce ourselves

Hi Rosie and all who have responded,

I'm an aspiring videographer who's aim this year is to film as many Filipino related events that I can get to.

I filmed at the Pasundayag Festival in Coventry a couple of weekends ago and have now finished the edit - its only 6mins long but it might give an insight into the up and coming fiestas. Its true that it was a bit windy but for a first-time event it went well I thought. The more established events like in MK will be busier - but you can never predict the weather!

Going to try and head to the Pistahan sa Newcastle this saturday to see what I can film. Have a look at the Coventry video by going to YouTube and search for'pasundayag festival coventry' and it should come up.

I will also try to make it to the MK barrio fiesta too! See you there.

Thanks,
Lloyd
