[3] The proposal came up again in July 2019 when the Iloilo Festivals Foundation Inc. (IFFI) announced that, starting in 2020, Kasadyahan would no longer be part of Dinagyang.

For the first time in Dinagyang 2024, the Iloilo provincial government was hosting the 2024 edition of Kasadyahan, which showcased different competing festivals in the province.

This marks the introduction to the main event of competition, where participating festivals from various parts of the region provide a sneak peek of their performances.

The lineup includes well-known festivals like Ati-Atihan of Kalibo, Aklan, MassKara of Bacolod, and Manggahan of Guimaras, as well as lesser-known but equally captivating celebrations such as Kasag of Banate, Iloilo, Pinta Flores of San Carlos, Negros Occidental, and Sugilanon of Roxas City, Capiz.

[9] Entries from festivals in other parts of the country, particularly in Hiligaynon-speaking provinces in the Soccsksargen region in Mindanao, are also accepted, such as Talakudong of Tacurong, Sultan Kudarat, and Hinugyaw of Koronadal, South Cotabato.
