I'm going in October and I believe the merengue festival is somewhere in the first or second week of October.

Does anybody have the right date? And is it just a day, or a few days?

Thanks,

Alexandra

Doesn't anybody know for sure?

In some books they say that the festival is in the first or second week of October, since I've booked my trip in these two weeks, I really hope it is.

But there must be somebody who lives there and who knows for sure? Anybody ???

Thanks,

Alexandra
