Panama City Local Events

There are numerous events in Panama City going on throughout the year. We have listed some of these below, and we think they are a great time to come visit!

The Panama Jazz festival is a highly recommended event - the festival attracts performers from all over the world. This year, the American jazz saxophonist Wayne Shorter and the Cuban pianist Chucho Valdes will be among the headliners. The next Panama Jazz Festival will take place in Panama City from January 12th to January 17th, 2010. For more details please contact us.

The Carnival is also a great moment to visit Panama- although each city celebrates the carnival; the most popular carnival is in Azuero Peninsula, in a small village called Las Tablas. Come and enjoy the next Carnival edition from February 13th to 16th, 2010.

Even if you can't make it during one of the listed Panama City events, there is sure to be something interesting happening when you do come - just send us an email and we'll be sure to let you know.
