The story

Feria Agostina Puerto Cortes in Puerto Cortes

Puerto Cortés's month-long August fair in honor of the Virgin of Santa María de Asunción, the city's patron saint, combining a horseback parade, float parade, concerts and fireworks over the Laguna de Alvarado with the Noche Veneciana, a nationally recognized closing celebration on the municipal beach.

Puerto Cortés spends most of August given over to its Feria Agostina, a homage to the Virgin of Santa María de Asunción, patroness of the port city's residents, known locally as porteños.

What is special

The part that makes it specific.

01

The place changes

The Noche Veneciana closing event, held on El Porvenir municipal beach, is unique to Puerto Cortés among Honduran patron fairs and has been declared national cultural heritage, combining sports, cultural performances and a lights show on the water

02

The mystery stays covered

The fair's maritime character, including boat outings on the Laguna de Alvarado, reflects Puerto Cortés's identity as Honduras's principal Caribbean port city, a distinction few other Honduran patronal fairs can claim given the country's mostly inland ferias
