Festivals of San Juan and San Pedro in Colombia: tradition, music and encounter.

But the festivals of San Juan and San Pedro are not only celebrations of a religious nature, as they are also an exaltation of local culture, where religious elements and native traditions are combined.

San Juan and San Pedro take place at the end of June and beginning of July, and are a vibrant celebration of Colombia’s multiculturalism, represented in this case by the tradition of the Opita culture. During these festivals, Bambuco, a traditional musical genre from the Colombian Andes, gains special importance and is considered one of the most representative elements of Colombian folklore.
