We are almost on December, and a lot of festivities are coming. For that we decided to share with you information about the Festival of Light for you to be aware about this special activity that has become on a tradition through the last years.
It began in 1996, when the Town Hall of San José organized the first parade of floats and the country's best bands to offer Costa Ricans a great display of colour and joy through their passage down the Paseo Colón and Avenida Segunda. The parade takes place during the Christmas season and is a celebration of the spirit of the holiday.
A big amount of bands compete for being taked into account for the Festival of light, but only the best ones will have the privilege to participate in that important activity, while thousands of people are working during the year on the creation of the floats, where they put a big quantity of lights to attract the attention of the viewers and have the possibility of winning an award as one of the best floats.
