The best Agro, Industrial and Commercial Exhibition

Hi Again,
I wanted to inform everyone that the "Expo Prado" is being held in Montevideo from Sept 5 to Sept 12.
This is the most important exhibition in the country and it is organized every year by the Uruguay Rural Association.

If you are interested in seeing the best cattle, horses, sheep and other animals that Uruguay has to offer you should visit the Expo. If not now maybe next year.

You could also put a stand with the product that you want to offer. If you want to have a presence in Uruguay this is a good place to start as the expo receives hundreds of thousands of visitors.

Or you can just go if you happen to be visiting Montevideo during that time. It is a great opportunity to see Uruguay's culture, commerce and industry condensed in a single place.

For more facts you can go to http://www.expoprado.com/portada_ing.htm

Finally, if you like horses you definitely need to go because during the expo "jineteadas" take place. Jineteadas are similar to Rodeo competitions but the "gaucho" way. They are considered a National Sport since 2006. Take a look at this video

Enjoy it!!

PS: Thanks Seba for the tip

You're welcome ;)
I must add that during the years the "expo" (as we call it) has developed some interesting night life.
Now you can stay late in some of the many pubs that open there during that time.
They have some good bands too. Rock n' Roll baby!
