Festivals in Nicaragua

Festivals in Nicaragua are a sight to behold! Nicaragua has a vibrant culture. This Central American country combines Catholic and native traditions to make events that are uniquely Nicaraguan. Nicaraguan festivals are lively events. They often contain a lot of music dancing and most importantly fireworks!

We experienced many Nicaraguan festivals first hand during our time living in Nicaragua. In this Nicaragua travel blog we explore some of the best festivals in Nicaragua. We cover horse riding festivals such as Hipica, running of the bulls and the La Purisima festival that marks the start of the Christmas festive season.
