Recurring festival dates and specific cultural venues are useful reference points when planning a stay in Garín. They offer two different perspectives: the annual calendar of celebrations and events, and places connected with the city’s history, agriculture, or sports. If you have a particular date in mind, distinguish between recurring festivals and events that are part of a single edition’s program.
Anniversary and Festivals in Garín
The celebration of Garín’s anniversary on June 20 takes place every year alongside Día de la Bandera. The program for the 133rd-anniversary celebration in 2026 included a traditional parade and a food court run by nonprofit organizations. Program items may vary in future editions, so check the program for each festival in advance.
Garín Baila was also part of the 2026 anniversary program. The music and dance event was scheduled for Thursday the 18th, from 4 to 8 p.m., at the pergola on Boulevard Presidente Perón and Libertad. These times and the venue refer to the 2026 edition; check current announcements if you are traveling at a later date.
The Fiesta del Chocolate is usually held at Plaza Belgrano, at the intersection of Padre Perna and Belgrano. While the anniversary offers an annual recurring date on June 20, the specific dates and program for the Fiesta del Chocolate may change. The two festivals therefore offer different reference points for planning your dates.
Cultural Venues and Sporting Events
