Panama National Fairs 2025: Dates And Places To Enjoy The Best Of Panamanian Culture

(MENAFN- Newsroom Panama) The New Year has arrived and with it some new dates for the festivals, fairs and cultural events that take place throughout the country. Each of these scheduled activities celebrates the diversity in each of the country's provinces. Many people know the country's main fairs and festivals, such as the Boquete Flower and Coffee Fair, International Fair of La Chorrera, the Festival de la Pollera Conga in Colón, the Azuero Fair or the National Festival of Mejorana, to name a few. However, throughout the country there are a large number of activities that are a sample of the customs that are rooted in each area.

Festivals and fairs in Panama have become an important source of income for local economies, especially in the country's interior provinces. Every year, thousands of national and international tourists travel to different parts of the country to participate in these festivities, generating an increase in the demand for products and services, such as accommodation, transportation, food and crafts. For example, the
Azuero International Fair
and the
Las Tablas Carnival
are events that not only celebrate culture, but also attract thousands of visitors, generating direct and indirect jobs, and contributing to the growth of small businesses in the regions.
Several of these activities are endorsed and recognized as
cultural heritage
by the
Tourism Authority (ATP).
