Hello, (I'am Anny Alarcón Campos)
ResponderBorrarAm Sorry my ignorance, but I didn't know that Chile had many events, I know some as viña del mar festival or la tirana festival. Between these two I prefer Viña del mar festival. Because is the most popular festival of Chile for the international artists that participate. La tirana's festival is more religious than Viña del mar festival. I'm Evangelic, so I don't like the La Tirana's party.

ResponderBorrarChile has very important and well-know festivals and celebrations. The ones I like are Viña del Mar music festival, Fiestas Patrias and We Tripantu, because are the ones that I know. For me, Independence day is the most attractive, because I celebrate it with my family and my friends. And the festival of Viña del Mar is funnier than We Tripantu, but I like both.

I think this article is very interesting, because talk about festivals I didn’t know, for example the We Tripantu and Carnaval Andino Con La Fuerza del Sol. However, I have always like the celebration of Fiestas Patrias more than the rest, because I have the opportunity to meet and share with family and friend, something that doesn´t happen in other celebrations.

Celebrations and festivals mentioned in the article, the patriotic festivities for me are funnier than the others, because it is an ideal moment to meet with my family and celebrate for several days, also there are many attractions that you can visit during those days. Of the other festivities I can say that the "Viña del Mar Music Festival" each year is more boring and "Santiago a Mil" is a good opportunity to escape the routine and enjoy artistic activities to accessible prices.

I like all the Cultural celebrations in Chile because those mix the best of national culture, the indigenous and the latinoamerican history. I don´t know so much about "We Tripantu" or "Carnaval Andino" but I think both are the most interesting celebrations on the list of the article. By the way "Viña del Mar Festival" is the most popular music fest in Chile.

After reading the article I came to the knowledge that Chile being a long country, it has a lot of different ethnicities and cultures that live together, thanks that, there are a lot of cultural expressions such as different Festivals. And I think that’s great because it gives people the space to get to know the local roots of the community.
ResponderBorrarDear Nelly,
Borrarpay attention to the following items: you need to use connectors to link your ideas and your message is unclear sometimes.
For me "Santiago a Mil" or "Santiago by the Thousands" is the more interesting event of Santiago because there are many differents interventions cultural in the streets of Santiago that people can see free, for example performances, dances and acrobatics.
ResponderBorrarAnother of my favorite cultural events is the "Viña del Mar Music Festival" because there are singers and groups of music of many different countries and people have a good time and it is fantastic!

A Show that i would go is "Carnaval Andino Con la fuerza del Sol" in febrero.

I think the article is very interesting. Many of these celebrations are unknown for the most of chileans although they sound really great. The Viña del Mar Music Festival is the most popular than the others, but I would like go to the Carnaval Andino Con la Fuerza del Sol, because connect two diferent cultures and shows us a lot of customs of them.

The celebration that I like is We Tripantu. This ceberation is very little known nationally. Although it has a great importance for Mapuche people, the majority ethnic group in Chile.
ResponderBorrarI like this celebration more than the festival of viña, because We Tripantu is linked culture and the history, aspects that interest me quite.
Dear Javiera,
Borrarpay attention to the following items: good use of connectors and vocabulary seen in class.
I knew almost all of these festivals, but I didn't know about the Carnaval del sol festival.
ResponderBorrarfrom all of them , the ones that I consider most relevant are the following; La Tirana, Santiago a Mil, and wetripantru because those festival show the Chilean culture, but the viña del mar festival and the day of the independence for me are not quite relevant since the viña del mar festival only shows foreign artist and the folck competition take a second place and the day of the independence it's just a good holiday for the whole family

ResponderBorrarFor me, my family and friends to celebrate the 18th September is very important, since being public holidays allows us to meet in different circumstances on the same date. On the 18th we met the graduates of I.R.F.E. as "former students" to parade in front of the municipal authorities and to meet again our friends. On nights with my friends go to the stadium Palmilla (Palmilla, sixth region) to enjoy the "cocinerías" and "Ramadas" where we eat, dance and drink listening to popular music.

This article is very interesting, i've learned a couple of new things about my country, chile. For example, i didn't knew the existence of the Carnaval Andino Con la Fuerza del Sol, and reading this written helped me to open to the knowledge of chilean's traditions unknown to me.
ResponderBorrarThe rest of the article, remind me how wonderfull and rich in culture that's my country, with world-class festivals as Viña del Mar Music Festival, the summer's attraction of the chilean people, and for the most of young people, the best moment to dismiss vacation days with the best music and the better artists in its genre.
In this days, read about Fiesas Patrias, anticipates me the feeling of dancing Cueca and share with my friends in the Fondas in this celebration date.
Chile has fantastic and uniques culture attractions !.

Good afternoon Professor
ResponderBorrarI'm going to talk about the holidays, since we are in the month of September.
To my impresses the way in which nationwide moves to celebrate and share on September 18.
I at that time I go with my family to parties where you eat pies, roasts, typical Chilean.
This celebration makes people very happy, because it allows to rest a few days of work or study.
I'm glad that every year it incentive and increases the number of people who enjoy it, because I think it is an important tradition that should be kept

ResponderBorrarChile have many different celebrations but each celebration have his essence.
ResponderBorrarFor me, Fiestas Patrias is only and the best because show us the origin of our country, it remember games, dances and more traditions that chilean people join every year, and make us feel proud of our nationality.
But every year people only drink alcohol or eat food and they don't celebrate for our ''patria''.

ResponderBorrarChile is very attractive in the cultural ambit. The special festivals for me are Patriotic Festivities and Santiago by the Thousands, because they are the best traditional events.
ResponderBorrarI like the Patriotic Festivities mainly for foods, barbecues, empanadas, etc. Also I can be with my family, play with my cousins and to have fun dancing cueca and drinking "Terremoto".
I love Santiago by the Thousands, for its artistic performances, for example dance, plays, music, and also because they show us a more Modern contemporary art and is a place where the people can be shared a good day.

The article is very interesting because after reading I realized that there are celebrations I do not know. For my the "fiestas patrias" are the most entertaining, for I am with my family and friends and celebration eating. I've never been to Festival de Viña del Mar because it has never been an artist that I like. The festival Santiago a Mil I also like, when I was 11 years old I went to see the "la pequeña gigante". I do not know the other celebrations but after reading the article I would like to know.
ResponderBorrarDear Daniela,
Borrarpay attention to the following items: Great job. Good use of vocabulary and articles.
I liked the article because it mentions celebration I didn’t know, for example the “Carnaval Andino con la fuerza del Sol”. I think it is very interesting.
ResponderBorrarChile has many celebrations and festivals at the national level, such as “Fiestas Patrias”, and at the regional level, for example, in my región is celebrated the “Invernadas” in the Winter.
Between celebrations and festival mentioned in the article, I really like “Santiago a mil”. During my holidays in Santiago always I tried to witness one or two events of the festival because I like cultural activities such as theater or dance.

ResponderBorrarIn the article mentioned the we tripantu o "new sun", it's the best celebration in chile, as this is a mapuche festival.
ResponderBorrarLast year, this was celebrated on June 24 in the commune La Florida, which communities celebrate with dances, songs, foods and drinks typical mapuche's.
In mi opinion, this is a nice celebration compared to the Patriotic Festivities, because in this people drinks a lot "terremoto" getting drunk causing accidents and fights, that is why I feature this cultural and indigenous celebration, because it preserve the tradition and roots of our indigenous people.

ResponderBorrarIn this article there were listed various celebration of Chile wich i didn´t know or never heard of,for example, the Carnaval Andino Con la Fuerza del Sol.
ResponderBorrarIn my opinion the best celebration in Chile is the Vina del mar music festival because many internationals artist come here to perform. This is the biggest festival in this country but it is not the most important celebration, because i think that the patriotic festivities is, due to all activities, food, music, customs, that gather chilean people to celebrate the independence of Chile with so much joy and happiness.
Dear Paula,

In my opinion the cultural events scheduled in Chile are very entertaining and there are festivals for all tastes. My favorite cultural events is "Fiestas Patrias", because I love the folklore and typical food, for example "empanadas" and "pastel de choclo".
