Christmas in Cuba? Havana smells of roasted piglet and salsa can be heard from homes
Arts & Culture Family Fun Food & Drink Hot List Seasonal Celebrations
Cuban Christmas Eve is a great fiesta in the rhythm of reggaeton and salsa instead of Christmas carols. The snow does not creak underfoot, no one is queuing for a carp or Christmas tree, and the smell of roasting pig hovers in the afternoon heat throughout Havana. Holidays and New Year's Eve in Cuba look completely different than ours. And yet you can find many similarities. It is primarily a family, warm atmosphere and joyful fun until dawn on New Year.
