THINGS TO DO IN HAVANA SPRING 2019
This is our edition of “Things to do in Cuba Spring 2019," but for spring all the events are taking place in Havana. Any of these would make a great addition to one of our Cuba tours.
-The Havana Urban Dance Festival will take place from April 11th through April 15th. The streets of Old Havana will be transformed into dance stages for the 23rd edition of the city’s Urban Dance Festival.
-The Havana International Guitar Festival will be held April 22nd through April 29th and is a showcase for some of the island’s outstanding musicians. This will be the 15th edition of the festival.
-The 7th Bridge to Havana Festival will take place from May 14th through May 20th, 2019. The festival promotes culture exchanges between Cuba and Spain. (Americans aren’t the only ones having cultural exchanges with Cubans.) This year’s festival is being coordinated by Cuban musician Jorge Luis Robaina, AKA Karamba.
-Though not strictly a “Havana event,” this year’s Cuban National Comedy Festival is limited to venues in Havana, including the Teatro Mella and Bertolt Brecht Theatre, and will take place from July 1st through July 8th.
See you in Havana!
