Ever since 1999, the last week of February has drawn cigar aficionados to enjoy not only the history and traditions but to immerse themselves in a bit of luxury and glamour too.<\/p>\n<p>The event is all about celebrating the most exquisite cigars from all over the world. Discover the history, talk to fellow enthusiasts, and uncover the traditions that have been formed over centuries of tobacco growing.<\/p>\n<p>During the event, visitors can enjoy specialised tours of the tobacco plantations and partake in cigar tasting seminars. One of the biggest parts of the festival is being able to be one of the first in the world to try the new Habano vitolas that are presented during the festivities.<\/p>\n<h4><strong>What to expect at The Habanos Festival<\/strong><\/h4>\n<p>Visitors from over 80 countries will flock to Cuba during this week, this ranges from aficionados and professionals to distributors and merchants. However, the festival draws a celebrity base too. There are many famous Habanos fans from the world of film, sportspersons, and fashion moguls.

The event also draws in sports stars like golfer Miguel \u00c1ngel Jim\u00e9nez and world-famous restaurateurs like Sir Terence Conran.<\/p>\n<p>It\u2019s not all cigar talks and tastings; there\u2019s plenty of time for entertainment and dancing. The nights are lively with guest performances. Previous stars such as Grammy award-winning Cuban composer Chucho Vald\u00e9s and Brazilian composer Ivan Lins, Portuguese singer Mariza and the bright colours of Spanish flamenco dancer Joaquin Cortes have been seen getting everyone in the festival spirit.<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter wp-image-1677 size-full\" src=\"https:\/\/www.lovecuba.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/11\/1.jpg\" alt=\"Habanos Cigars at The Habanos Festival\" width=\"1250\" height=\"833\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.lovecuba.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/11\/1.jpg 1250w, https:\/\/www.lovecuba.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/11\/1-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.lovecuba.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/11\/1-1024x682.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/www.lovecuba.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/11\/1-768x512.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.lovecuba.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/11\/1-750x500.jpg 750w, https:\/\/www.lovecuba.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/11\/1-1140x760.jpg 1140w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1250px) 100vw, 1250px\" \/><\/p>\n<h4><strong>A week of entertainment<\/strong><\/h4>\n<p>The week begins on Monday with a Welcome Night, and there is a special dinner on Wednesday.
