The Ecuadorian government has launched a digital tourist guide for Carnival 2026 to promote various cultural and recreational activities throughout the country.
The Ecuadorian government has unveiled a digital tourist guide titled 'A la Voz del Carnaval' aimed at enhancing the Carnival experience for both locals and visitors in 2026. According to the Ministry of Production, the guide serves as a comprehensive tool to explore major destinations, events, and cultural festivities across Ecuador. It offers a diverse array of activities suitable for all ages, emphasizing the vibrant cultural life that characterizes the Carnival season in this Andean nation.
The guide is designed to facilitate access to cultural celebrations, natural attractions, gastronomic routes, and traditional events, making it easier for people to plan their holidays and visit various locations throughout the four regions of Ecuador. The government hopes that by providing this resource, more citizens will take advantage of the various activities available during the Carnival time, which is recognized as a significant period for the tourism economy.
The previous Carnival of 2025 saw hotel occupancy rates peak in numerous tourist areas, showcasing the holiday's importance for the country's economic health. With tourism providing jobs and opportunities for over 600,000 families, this initiative is positioned as a means of boosting local economies while showcasing Ecuador's rich cultural heritage and natural beauty.
