¡Viva Colombia!
Every year on July 20th, Colombia erupts in a vibrant celebration of its independence from Spanish rule. While the official declaration of independence wasn’t until August 7, 1819, the events of July 20, 1810, marked the beginning of the end for Spanish colonial power.

The Spark That Ignited a Revolution
The story begins with a seemingly trivial incident: the refusal to lend a flower vase. This innocuous event escalated into a full-blown protest against Spanish authorities, igniting a spirit of rebellion that would eventually lead to the nation’s freedom.
A Month-Long Fiesta
While July 20th is the official Independence Day, the celebrations often extend throughout the entire month. Cities and towns across Colombia come alive with patriotic fervor, adorned in the colors of the Colombian flag: yellow, blue, and red.
What to Expect:
- Military parades: A grand display of patriotism and national pride.
- Live music and dancing: The infectious rhythms of Colombian music fill the streets.
- Traditional food and drinks: Indulge in delicious local cuisine and refreshing beverages.
- Fireworks displays: A dazzling spectacle illuminating the night sky.

The Spirit of Colombia
Independence Day is more than just a holiday; it’s a celebration of Colombian culture, resilience, and unity. It’s a time to reflect on the sacrifices made by those who fought for freedom and to embrace the vibrant spirit that defines this beautiful country.
Whether you’re a Colombian national or simply a lover of Latin American culture, there’s no better time to experience the magic of Colombia than during Independence Day.
