Bello's biggest annual party runs 10–20 July, with more than 100 free shows spanning music, theatre, sport, food and crafts. Highlights include free concerts on 16, 18, 19 and 20 July, a classic-car parade, a soapbox-cart race, the "Manos que Inspiran" makers' market in the main park, and a sancocho festival in the San Félix corregimiento. Bello is a short metro ride north of central Medellín, and this is a genuinely local, non-touristy way to see a paisa town festival.
