The National Director of Tourism, Carlos Fagetti, will participate in one of the most important tourism fairs in Latin America and will present the destination as a route of art and culture with emphasis on the opening of the Picasso exhibition in March.
Uruguay is among the main routes for international art tourism in Latin America, a fact that will be highlighted at WTM Latin America in Sao Paulo, when an unprecedented exhibition by Pablo Picasso arrives in Montevideo. These and other novelties will be presented by the National Director of Tourism, Carlos Fagetti, during the three days that the fair will run from April 2 to 4. Seeking to present to the tourism sector other destinations in the country, in addition to the already known Punta del Este, Montevideo and Colonia del Sacramento, its characteristic culture of peace and social equality, the delegation also promotes and disseminates its cultural imprint with exhibitions, presentations and shows, further enhanced by the Antel Arena, a giant multi-platform space, inaugurated in November 2018.
“These actions show other charms of Uruguay, art, culture, entertainment enhance the destinations and help break the seasonality of tourism,” said Fagetti.
In addition to art, Uruguay is firmly positioned on the international stage as one of the best wine and wine tourism routes in Latin America.
The leading American magazine Wine Enthusiast has awarded the Best Winery in the World 2018 prize to Bodega Garzón, within the framework of the 19th edition of the Wine Awards.
The title makes the quality of Uruguayan producers and the differential of the terroir of the small giant more visible.
Original proposals that integrate the best of Uruguayan wines and oils, such as the Wine Routes and Olive Routes, are also highlighted at the WTM. These are routes that mix gastronomy and wine culture in José Ignacio, Punta del Este, Aiguá, Pueblo Edén, Piriápolis and Pan de Azúcar, among other destinations.
