Travelers to Argentina experience 200th

Anniversary Celebration

Festivities for the Bicentennial of the Argentinean Revolution add another attraction to the

Discover.Travel Group’s tailor made travel packages to Argentina

Salvador, Bahia, Brazil, June 2nd 2010 --- Two hundred years ago, Buenos Aires was the center of events

during the May Revolution, which triggered off events that led to Argentina's declaration of

independence from Spain six years later. This week, 6 million Argentineans, visitors from neighboring

countries and foreign dignitaries and travelers came together in Buenos Aires to celebrate Argentina’s

200th

birthday with impressive parades, festivals and performances. ILS3 and the Discover.Travel

Group’s clients had the opportunity to be part of this event.

The Presidents of Brazil, Paraguay, Venezuela,

Ecuador, Uruguay, Honduras, Bolivia and Chile

and 19 officials from all over the world visited

Buenos Aires during these days. They enjoyed

spectacular shows, parades and concerts with

more than 15,000 participants. More than two

million Argentinean flags turned Buenos Aires to a

blue and white ocean. The first highlights of the

events, which are taking place in Argentina

throughout 2010 were the festivities on May 24th

and 25th

. The opening show featured a scenario

with the obelisk on pairs of artists. La Bomba de

Tiempo, Palo Pandolfo, Patricia Sosa, Hilda

Lizarazu, Pablo Lescano, Kevin Johansen and

many more offered a free open air concert and at

midnight the 6 million people sang the National

Anthem of Argentina.

On May 25 of 2010 the Cultural Center of the Bicentennial was inaugurated and will operate in the

former Palacio de Correos, in the City of Buenos Aires. Another long-expected inauguration was the re-

opening of the Teatro Colon in Buenos Aires , after three years of closure due to restoration works, on

May 25th

, called “Día de Patria”, or “Motherland Day” in Argentina, exactly 102 years after its first

opening. The theatre’s high-quality acoustics make it one of the top five theatres for opera in the world.

With over 2500 seats, it was built to reflect, and enhance the rich cultural life of Argentina. Additionally

to a historic city tour and the famous Tango Shows, assisting an opera or a ballet at the Teatro Colon will

be another highlight for culturally interested travelers in Buenos Aires, assure the ILS3 and

Discover.Travel Group’s Specialized Travel Consultants. This season, the theater features Swan Lake, La

Bohème and Don Giovanni. With the personalized Luxury Travel Packages to Argentina by the
