Costa Rica Entertainment News – In Costa Rica, Halloween is celebrated as the Day of the Costa Rican Traditional Masquerade. The day holds more than the intricate parades with giant mud masks. There are concerts with DJs and live performances as well.
The party lasts all weekend, starting on Friday October 31. There are family events during the day in most towns. There will be folk dancing, mask making demonstrations and artistic gifts for sale. Santa Cruz and Escazu do this holiday best.
