Peruvian Criollo Music’ Day

October 27th, 2006

On every October 31st, Peruvians celebrate the Día de la Canción Criolla. This year’s commemorations, organised by Lima’s Municipality together with renowned private companies, will spread out for a whole week and include concerts, recitals, art events, and culinary fairs. The setting of this upbeat festivity is Lima’s historic centre.

Some of the program’s highlights include the closing concert by Eva Ayllón (Tuesday 31st, Paseo de los Héroes Navales) and, on Sunday 29th, a gastronomy trio: a Limeño Dessert contest (Plaza Italia, 11am- 2pm), a Cocktail contest (Parque de la Muralla, 12- 6pm) and a Anticucho Festival (Alameda Chabuca Granda, 6 p.m.).
