A Traditional Costa Rican Fiesta

Just about every town and village in Costa Rica holds a fiesta every year. It’s fun for the whole family, with carnival rides, food, music, dancing, and a rodeo. The celebration lasts for two or three days and gets going in late afternoon and goes well into the evening.

In this video you’ll get a taste of the fiesta in Villarreal, a small town on the northern Pacific coast.
