The story

National Tea Festival in Campo Viera

A multi-day celebration in Campo Viera, Misiones, honoring the region's tea-growing families and the crop that accounts for nearly all of Argentina's tea production. Combines an industrial exhibition on tea processing with concerts, craft stalls and a queen coronation, tied to the town's Polish and Ukrainian settler history.

Campo Viera calls itself the National Capital of Tea, a claim it backs with the presence of what municipal sources describe as the world's largest tea-processing plant, built inside the town's own urban footprint.

What is special

The part that makes it specific.

01

The place changes

Campo Viera hosts what local sources describe as the world's largest tea-processing plant inside its urban area, giving the festival's industrial exhibition an unusually direct connection to a working facility rather than a generic trade display

02

The mystery stays covered

Misiones supplies close to the entirety of Argentina's tea, making this one of the only public events anywhere in the country centered on tea rather than the far more prominent yerba mate

03

The city starts moving

The festival traces the crop's arrival to 1923, when a priest introduced tea seeds nearby, and it explicitly honors the Polish and Ukrainian settler families who founded Campo Viera from 1936 onward and built the local tea economy
