What’s Happening Around Ecuador This Weekend?
November 12 – November 16, 2026
Beyond the largest cities, the weekend reaches from rock in Ibarra and Tulcán to an agricultural fair in Riobamba, cycling in Salinas, trail running in Pastaza and an integrated-arts festival in Tena. These selections show why the national calendar should not stop at Quito, Guayaquil, Cuenca and Loja.
