The story

Expo Cuero in Atyra

Expo Cuero is a leather crafts fair held on the Peatonal Indio Jose, a pedestrian street in Atyra, a Cordillera department town long associated with talabarteria, or traditional leatherworking. Per Paraguay's official festivities calendar, it runs each September, opening in the morning around ten o'clock.

Expo Cuero is staged along the Peatonal Indio Jose, a pedestrian street in Atyra, a town in Cordillera department roughly forty kilometers from Asuncion that has built a distinct regional reputation around talabarteria, the traditional craft of leatherworking.

What is special

The part that makes it specific.

01

The place changes

Atyra has a well established reputation within Paraguay as a center for leatherwork, and Expo Cuero gives that craft tradition a dedicated public showcase rather than treating it as a background detail of a broader town fair

02

The mystery stays covered

Staged along the town's pedestrian street rather than an enclosed venue, the fair lets visitors move directly between individual leatherworking stalls, giving the event a workshop-market character suited to examining saddlery, belts, and other leather goods up close
