This month, The Howler is featuring some of the exciting events happening around town, from charity events, to galleries, to theater, to athletic events. This area of Costa Rica always has a full calendar of events that encourages community to come together for a cause, interest, or in the name of fun.

Events aren’t open just to those that live here! We encourage those passing through the area to join some of the Happenings in town to gain a sense of life here in Guanacaste.

Check out some of the meaningful community events happening in the area in the coming week:
