There are parades and festivals of all kinds, two of the traditional parades are the Christmas parade and the horse parade which are held near the end of December.
The Carnavals in Zapote and Palmares also attract huge crowds of people who go danicng, partying, beer drinking, and cruising around, they also have costarrican bull fights where many people gather in a rodeo style structure called el redondel, many improvsed bull fighters tease and get close to the bull, while the crowds laugh and scream everytime the bulls catch or scares one of them.
At the end the bulls never get hurt much less killed and it ends with a firework display.
People in costa rica celebrate the whole month of December and usually into January.
another traditional activity is the avenidazo which is the stroll along central avenue throwing confetti to others.
After people recieve their aguinaldos which is the yearly christmas bonus people start the serious christmas shopping.
December is probably the best time to visit Costa Rica.
