A complete collection of Ecuadorian festivals and customs

Enthusiastic Ecuadorians will never miss any gatherings or festivals. There is more than one festival or long holiday or religious event in almost every month. People put down their work and devote themselves to various celebrations and overeating.

Since 90% of the Ecuadorian population is Catholic, Catholic celebrations are of the top priority. People sing and dance day and night, cheering, and the sumptuous banquet continues for days. Especially in villages outside the city, villagers went all out to devote themselves to the celebration.
