The most visible of Guanared guanacastecas penas (cultural events) are being conducted once a month in 7 of the cantons in Guanacaste (Liberia, Tilarán, Abangares, Hojancha, Nandayure, Nicoya and Carrillo).

These penas are spaces of expression and artistic encounters between artists, and for local audiences. Usually there are all kinds of music genres, especially youth and leading guanacasteco folk, poetry and short stories.
