Puno-Fiesta de la Virgen de la Candelaria

Posted 1 year ago by avatar greenmile in response to avatar anyideas's question: I heard that there is a festival in Puno in February.What is it about? (give a different answer) .

On the first 2 weeks in February there is Fiesta de la Virgen de la Candelaria during which all kinds of dancers and bands from the nearby towns compete in Devil Dance or 'Diablada'. You can check out the festivities at night on the streets (it's better than the official thing set in the stadium).
