Does any one know of anything major that's going on this summer in Colombia? Any thing that would draw large crowds of people? i.e. catholic parades, festivals, soccer games, protest ect....

ColombianoGringo (Moderator) says on May 27, 2008, 14:43: I'm looking forward to the Bogota cold. It is already approaching Africa hot here in Houston. The last several times I've been in Colombia over the last six months has been to "Tierra Caliente" and the coast so it will be a nice change. Aside from a few days in December and connections to other cities in Colombia, I haven't spent much time in Bogota lately.
