The island’s most joyful tradition returns!

From December 28 to 30, 2025, the Paranda Nacional di Dande will once again travel across Aruba, bringing blessings, rhythm, and unity to every neighborhood it visits. This vibrant cultural celebration, led by Go Cultura Foundation, has become a beloved annual event that honors our heritage while keeping the Dande spirit alive for new generations.

Expect three unforgettable days filled with live music, heartfelt blessings, and that unmistakable energy that makes December in Aruba so special.

Then, on January 7, 2026, the celebration continues with a special Youth & Children Edition, where Aruba’s youngest talents will share their own voices of hope, joy, and prosperity for the New Year.

The Paranda Nacional di Dande is more than an event—it’s a movement of community, culture, and pride.

December 28, 29, and 30, 2025
