I had a message from a young tico friend (mid 20's) who mentioned going to a big party. He said it was one of three held each year. I asked for more info and he wrote this.


CR main party events are:

1. Palmares (usually being held last week of January and first week of
February): 2nd place in the world for beer consumption per capita, after
Oktoberfest.

2. End-year break @ Guanacaste: daily parties, different each year... except year-end Espinar party, being held Dec 28th @ Filadelfia (Guanacaste); great party, maybe 2000-4000 people.

3. Half-year break @ Liberia: it's only a weekend, the Friday close to July
28th and the Saturday close to July 28th, there's another Espinar party on
Saturday, it was last Saturday, I had a great time

If you plan to attend any of the parties, I recommend Palmares.
You should definitely go with someone, Palmares is 1:30h away from San
José... going in car is fun but you can't drink (lot of policemen).
I recommend bus (such a cultural experience because you see a lot of
people's behaviour, but it's difficult to get a space and lot of people in
each bus) or cab (kinda expensive).

You forgot about the festival in zapote during christmas week. It is on this year and only palmares in bigger but zapote is so much easier to get to and from.

What do you mean you can not drink if you take a car?
