Never too old to party!
Join the fabulous festivities in Puerto Rico’s venerable capital
LIME
THE BIG
PICTURE
The heat is on in old San Juan! Puerto Rico’s
biggest celebration, the Fiestas de la Calle San
Sebastián, erupts across the capital from 15 to
19 January. The cobbled streets and handsome
plazas will be overflowing with live music,
spontaneous dancing, artisan stalls, awesome
acrobatics and much more. It sets the tone for
what promises to be a whole year of revelry:
in 2020, the UNESCO-listed city has a range of
events planned to mark the run-up to its 500-year
anniversary. San Juan was founded by Juan Ponce
de León in 1521, and this coming year the city will
mark the occasion by embracing its Taino, African,
Spanish and North American traditions.
