The Carnival of San Bartolomé came to an end in its 2023 edition dedicated to outer space. The grand finale took place this Friday in Playa Honda, with the parade of the burial of the Guachinango and subsequent burning and the performance of the Seguridad Social group, with which the entire municipality vibrated again.

The mayor of San Bartolomé, Isidro Pérez, made a very positive assessment of this year's celebrations, and wanted to thank the Department of Festivities for their efforts "which have made the carnivals of San Bartolomé a resounding success both in attendees and in the quality of our events."

Isidro Pérez also thanked "the residents of the municipality for their dedication, generating spaces for coexistence and inclusion and welcoming the visitors who accompanied us these days" and highlighted "the large number of participants in all the events of an integrating program aimed at all ages."

Over 14 days, the municipality enjoyed carnivals that had in its program various workshops to spend an afternoon with the family such as 'Create your Space Helmet', 'Create your Cabassa' or 'Design your Mask', as well as the great Drag Queen Gala, which demonstrated in its second edition the high level of designers and participants; the Chinijo carnival, where the little ones were the main protagonists; the day carnival, which featured performances by prominent artists such as Edwin Rivera, Las K-Narias and El Combo Dominicano and the Seguridad Social concert as a final culmination in Playa Honda.

The carnival festivities have served as recognition to all the people and groups that make them possible year after year. In all the events, the population of the municipality has responded brilliantly, exceeding expectations of participation and demonstrating the responsibility that characterizes the inhabitants of San Bartolomé.
