Where to go

One in-season place of each kind, rotated each week.

Fiestas

Aguadilla keeps Saint Charles Borromeo on November 4 (just around the weekend). A town’s fiestas patronales usually run the days around the feast and move the biggest nights to the nearest weekend, so the date is the anchor rather than the whole of it.

The same weekend, with every event and every scored spot, is on the weekend page.

This is the 8th Weekend Watch (the previous one is here).
