Hot on the salsa festival\u2019s heels is the annual cigar festival, Habanos. The 24th<\/sup> edition runs from February 26th<\/sup> to March 1st<\/sup>. Think smokes, new launches, lectures, pairings, contests, dinners, visits to cigar factories and plantations. This year\u2019s festival could shed light, too, on the effects September 2022\u2019s Hurricane Ian had on the tobacco harvest in Cuba\u2019s prime growing region, Pinar del R\u00edo.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Amid the cigar festival dates, Habaneros celebrate the birth of journalist, poet and independence leader Jos\u00e9 Mart\u00ed on January 28th<\/sup>. Thousands walk through the streets with torches of fire in a moving tribute to the island\u2019s national hero. The march leads from Havana\u2019s university down to the Fragua Martiana museum close to the Malec\u00f3n. It\u2019s here the teenage Mart\u00ed was sentenced to hard labour at the San L\u00e1zaro quarries for expressing ideas of independence.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

By early March, it\u2019s time to get back into the party spirit with the Fiesta del Tambor, a rhythm and dance festival held in Havana between March 5th<\/sup> and March 10th<\/sup>. Rock up for music and dance competitions, workshops, live jazz, rumba and timba concerts, and more. Find the party at Salon Rosado de la Tropical, La Piragua, cultural centres and on the streets. The programme hasn\u2019t yet been released. Keep your eyes on https:\/\/fiestadeltamborcuba.com\/<\/a>for the low down and tickets.<\/p>\n\n\n
