As a tribute to the extinct local fish called bac-baccara which the name of the town Bacarra was derived from, a festival celebration is being held annually. The Ilocandia Photographic Society (TIPS) went to document the said event on November 30.
Tipsters Alaric Yanos, Bryan Rapadas, Michael Ong, Dr. Edwin Antonio, Archi. Joseph Reginaldo and Andie Lamug went to experience the said festival. The highlight of the festival was the street dancing parade. There were only nine groups who participated in the parade.Prior to the dance parade, when some of the tipsters who went to shoot dance parade participants on their preparation, they shy away from the cameras. It was learned that locals were aloof of photographers because of their experience that an old time photographer based there shoot people and let them pay for the photos.
After the event, they went on a photo op at the historical landmark of the town that is the Bacarra Domeless Tower.
