📣 Traveler notes

Argentina is a large South American country with diverse climates and landscapes, ranging from northern jungles to central plains and southern mountains.

  • May 25: Day of the First National Government (Commemorates the establishment of the Primera Junta)
  • January 1: New Year's Day
  • March 24: Day of Remembrance for Truth and Justice
  • April 2: Malvinas Day
  • June 17: Anniversary of the death of Martín Miguel de Güemes
  • Argentinians are expressive and direct. Greetings often involve cheek kissing (starting with the right cheek) in urban areas. Be prepared for personal questions, which are generally asked out of curiosity. While profanity is common, it is usually not meant to offend. Punctuality is expected for business meetings, but social times can be flexible.

About this holiday

The May Revolution occurred in Buenos Aires (then the capital of the Viceroyalty of the Río de la Plata) between May 18 and 25, 1810. This event resulted in the removal of Viceroy Baltasar Hidalgo de Cisneros and the formation of the Primera Junta, the local government, on May 25.
