At the end of June, the municipality of Milan, on the banks of the Caquetá River, celebrates the San Pedro Festival, traditional throughout the department of Caquetá, as well as Huila.
The history and customs of the municipality and the region are celebrated with a parade of floats and troupes with motifs alluding to Milanese traditions. During the weekend you can also enjoy live music in the town's central park with local artists and special guests of national stature.
Likewise, a pageant is carried out with candidates from the different towns and villages of the municipality. The "Sanjuanero Caqueteño", a typical dance of the region, is a fundamental part of the pageant, being one of the parameters taken into account by the juries when choosing the new cultural ambassador of Milan.
This event not only preserves the traditions, but also strengthens community ties and attracts visitors who want to know and enjoy the hospitality and culture of this corner of Caquetá.
