The International
Theatre Festival and the Latin American Cinema International
Festival have made of Havana a centre of cultural festivals
world-wide recognized. But it’s also possible to
found a lot of less known afro-Cuban dance, Literature,
ballet and other arts festivals, plus the small events
made in the different provinces.
The most interesting Cuban Carnival is celebrated in Santiago
of Cuba by July, and it’s plenty of luxuriant floats
parades that transport the carnival queens, percussion
bands parades, and stages distributed all over town with
salsa bands playing all night. The most interesting is
probably the congueros parades, a unique characteristic
that defines the carnivals in Santiago. The carnivals
celebrated in February in Havana and July in Camagüey,
are also interesting, although are a little smaller.
