  2. “Fiestas Patrias” is a patriotic celebration; in this all the country celebrate the independence of this on 18 and 19 September. Is the best festivity of Chile because all Chileans enjoy with “ramadas” and “fondas”, national dance, typical games and typical food. Is better than “festival de la Tirana” because it is celebrated in all the country.

  3. Fiestas Patrias is the best celebration because, comparing with the others events, it’s more inexpensive than Viña Music Festival and is closer than the Carnaval Andino. You can celebrate in house with your family or you can go outside with your friends. The typical place that you go is called “Fonda”, where you can eat typical food and play classic games.

  5. Santiago a Mil is the best celebration. It's more inexpensive, more interesting and more entertaining than the other celebrations. People can enjoy with their familys and learn about the culture. Besides, the shows are performed at the street, so it's easy to get. I like this festival, because it gives the oportunity to share outdoor.

  6. We Tripantu is the celebration most important for the Mapuches, it celebrated new year. We Tripantu is carried out in the region of Araucania. People can enjoy a celebration indigenous at June 23 and 24. This ritual is more important than Festival de Viña del Mar and Santiago a Mil, because is a cultural event. But, We Tripantu is less popular than Fiestas Patrias.

  12. In my opinión “Festival de la Tirana” is the best celebration cultural in chile because is a colorful festivity it has a lot of music and dances which gives a happy environment between the attendants. This festival is better than “Viña del mar Music Festival” because It lasts throughout the day and not only on the night, Also the commemoration of the Virgin is in the streets and free instead Festival of the Viña take place in a amphitheater and you have to pay for a ticket.

  13. I think "Fiestas Patrias " is the best celebration, because is possible to realize in all of Chile, for example you can celebrate in "fondas" or in a house with our family or with a friends. You can dance cueca, eat "empanadas", "anticuchos" or simply enjoy of the parade.
    Fiestas Patrias is better than "Carnaval andino con la fuerza del sol" because you can celebrate in any places

  19. "Viña del Mar music Festival" is one of the many celebrations of Chile. In this festival, you can see your favourite artists and listen to music of all styles. This festival is closer and is more entertaining than the "Carnaval Andino". The music festival is in the night, so you can go to the beach with your family or friends by the day.

  21. If you want have a new experencie then We Tripantu is for you. In my opinion is the best cultural celebration in Chile because you can connect with the mapuche culture. Maybe this activity don't has the same attractive that have others festival or activities but if you comparative this activity is the most inexpensive and is the most ancient.

  22. My favorite celebration of Chile is Fiestas patrias because it’s a more important party in this country for your foods, your traditions and the music. For me Fiestas patrias is more important than La Tirana but, for me, la Tirana are other reason more religious. Other thing because I prefer this celebration is universal I mean happen everywhere in the city and the country, are a very happy celebration. Christian Castro

  23. I prefer "Carnaval Andino con la fuerza del Sol" because this celebration is in Arica and in this city lives my grandmother. Arica is a nice place because is quiet and has a beautiful beach. In this celebration will go people from different places and is very similar to the celebration of "La Tirana" but I prefer the carnaval because i have a place to sleep.

  24. Santiago a mil is better than Viña del mar music festival, because Santiago a mil is more inexpensive, all the activities are free in the street like "little giant", you can enjoy this activity with all family. This celebration is in Santiago, the festival is close to my house. I like because I think that Santiago needs more culture activities and It's very interesting.

  25. The best celebration are the "Fiestas Patrias", because an atmosphere of joy throughout Chile, not only live in a specific place, if not all families can celebrate at home or visit the famous "Fondas Chilenas". It is also an instance where families gather and share all Chilean traditions, such as meals, drinks, dances and tipical games.

  26. Fiestas Patrias is the best celebration in Chile. It is better than Santiago a Mil, because you can eat different type of food. Vina del Mar Music Festival is busier than Fiestas Patrias, you can celebrate in your house. Fiestas Patrias is sunnier than Festival de la Tirana, because it’s on September and Festival de la Tirana on July.

  30. "Santiago a Mil" is a cultural festival held during the month of January in the city center. For three weeks you can see different artistic activities: you can see actors and performances like the Little Giant. This celebration is better than "Fiestas Patrias" because it does not require animal abuse in their activities.

  31. I choose Festival of Viña because i love listen diferent types of music and this festival brings different artists of great quality. To go, you must travel to the fifth region of Valparaiso and go to the "Quinta Vergara"
    Festival of Viña is better than “Fiestas Patrias” because there are no accidents and deaths from drinking too much alcohol.

  32. I prefere we tripantu, because I am from to Chiloé, an in my city and i my school all celebrate this event. I like we tripantu because, this is a very traditional in the south of Chile, and I think that is more original than fiestas patrias. However, I like to much Fiestas Patris in Chile, because you can make many activities and all the peoples celebrate.
    In general I love the cultural activities.
