13. Dancing Devils Fill the Streets
“Carnival Devils”,
traditionally children
dressed as skeletons, devils,
witches and the like, fill the
streets of cities like Cali,
Bogota and Medellin, to
dance and play flutes,
tamborines and drums.
You tip them a few coins
for their efforts so they’ll
dance onward to another
area. They start to appear in
late November and almost
“magically” disappear after
the first week of the New
Year.
18. You can experience The Cali Festival
Come see it all for yourself from
December 26 to December 31

Prosperous
New Year in
