Nulti's 2026 Festival del Cuy program

Nulti's local organizers announced a September 6, 2026 Festival del Cuy in El Tablón as part of the parish's anniversary celebrations. The date is past, so this page is a record of what was planned rather than an invitation to a current event.

Food and community on the same program

El Mercurio's September 1 report described a program starting at 8 a.m., with a 7K run, traditional dances, artistic performances and activities centered on cuy. The planned food fair featured roasted cuy with potatoes and ají, as well as mote pillo, tortillas and wood-fired bread. Those are details from an advance report; they do not establish how many vendors attended or exactly what was sold on the day.

The festival was also described as the opening of a broader parish-anniversary program. Looking at the event as part of that calendar helps explain why it combined food, sport and performance rather than operating as a stand-alone market. Nulti is a rural parish of Cuenca, as the municipality's territorial list confirms. The municipality also identifies Nulti as a rural “parish of bread” and includes it in a rural tourism route. The planned wood-fired bread offering fits that local identity. The parish government's site is a better starting point for later activities than this September 2026 timetable.
