San Sebastian Festivities - Old San Juan

[MrLacox]

For all cruisers embarking, debarking or having port of calls in San Juan this weekend expect huge crowds and slow traffic.

 

The San Sebastian festivities are being held during this weekend in Old San Juan.

 

This carnival is the most popular and attended music, food and artisan fair held on PR.

 

Crowds usually begin arriving by large numbers during early afternoon & hang out till midnite.

 

Additionally, several ships are slated to visit the San Juan port. These include the Carnival Dream, Carnival Conquest, Adventure of the Seas, Summit, Norwegian Gem, Star Legend, Jewel of the Seas, Disney Wonder, Carnival Liberty, and the Seven Seas Navigator.

 

Local authorities keep cab and bus flow the best they can but delays should be expected.

 

 

Anyhow, this a unique opportunity to have a real taste of a "boricua" party.

 

So Dont miss it.

 

Enjoy your stay !!!!

Sitting in the traffic now.. trying to figure out where to go to drop bags and check in. It's such a mess.. no signs. Nothing! I've driven by the Conquest and the Dream 3 times now trying to figure it out. We need to check in part of the group. Then take our rental back. We stupidly thought this would be easier.. nope!

We come in next weekend. With the way hotels were booked up early, wondered if there was an event next weekend as well.
