The story

Festival de las Flores Jarabacoa in Jarabacoa

Jarabacoa's Festival de las Flores, running since 2011, fills four early-June days with floral exhibitions, artisan fairs, gastronomy and float parades through the mountain town's streets. Major Dominican merengue and bachata artists headline alongside a partnership with Colombia's Medellin Flower Fair. Local hotels and restaurants build seasonal menus and packages around the festival week, reflecting its role as one of the Cibao region's biggest annual tourism draws.

Jarabacoa's Festival de las Flores began in 2011 and has grown into a four-day event central to the mountain town's identity as the Dominican Republic's leading ecotourism destination, now well established after more than a decade of editions.
