The story

Festival de la Naranja Guinope in Guinope

Guinope has held its Festival de la Naranja every year since 1981, drawing on citrus-growing communities like Santa Rosa and Manzaragua in El Paraiso department. Beyond orange-based food, the program includes bullfights, ribbon races, motocross, and youth pageants, giving this decades-old single-crop festival an unusually broad entertainment scope.

Guinope has celebrated its orange harvest with a dedicated festival every year since 1981, a run of more than four decades that makes it one of the longest continuously held single-crop festivals in Honduras.

What is special

The part that makes it specific.

01

The place changes

Running continuously since 1981, this is among Honduras's longest-held single-crop festivals, and its program mixes citrus-focused food and drink with an eclectic entertainment lineup, bullfights, ribbon races on horseback, and motocross competitions, that goes well beyond what most harvest festivals in the country typically offer, reflecting Guinope's role as both a citrus-producing town and a weekend destination for visitors from nearby Tegucigalpa

02

The mystery stays covered

Guinope covers roughly 200 square kilometers of highland terrain and counted fewer than 9,000 residents in Honduras's last full census, making its four-decade festival unusually well attended relative to the town's small permanent population
