1. In Argentina there are different typical celebrations, for
example…

2. Christmas
Christmas or 'La Navidad', in Argentina is celebrated on the 25th of
December. Christmas decorations form the most important aspect of
Christmas celebrations in the country. Each house in Argentina is
decorated with garlands, wreaths, electric lights and native flowers of
the season. The Christmas tree is adorned beautifully with
baubles, small figurines of Christmas characters and cotton balls to
represent snow. Little children anticipate the arrival of ‘Santa Claus’
('Papá Noel‘) for gifts. Fireworks are put on show to amuse the children
during Christmas Eve. Fireworks with the shape of balloons are set
off, these paper balloons are lit with candles, and it’s a popular
Christmas tradition in Argentina.
A magnificent Christmas dinner comprising of the country's favourite
dishes like 'parrillada' and 'ninos envuettas' are served on Christmas
Eve. People prefer to have their Christmas dinner out in the open and
in gardens.

3. Catholic influence is everywhere
since Argentina is a country
influenced especially by Italian
immigrants.
When thinking of celebrating "la
Navidad" in Argentina prepare
yourself for blue skies, warm
temperatures and a delightful
breeze.

4. “Quinceañera”
Quinceañera, sometimes called quince, is the
celebration of a girl's fifteenth birthday in parts of Latin
America and elsewhere in communities of people from
Latin America. This birthday is celebrated differently
from any other birthday, as it marks the transition from
childhood to young womanhood. The
celebration, however, varies significantly across
countries, with celebrations in some countries taking
on, for example, more religious overtones than in
others.

5. Students’ Festival
In the province of Jujuy people go all-out in a two-week
celebration. The Fiesta Nacional de los
Estudiantes (Students’ Festival) has been held since
1949. There all kinds of activities, from float parades to
sporting competitions to the crowning of the Queen of
Students. There are big celebrations around the
country as well: every county and province also
chooses their Spring Queen in preparation for the
nation-wide competition in Jujuy.
