The plans are starting on this end...(yup, the Mrs gave her "blessing" today, LOL). I can't believe it took me a week to see this. I AM IN! I started planning when I was still in Havana last November! I am looking to spend that week and the next in Cuba. The first week in/around Havana, the second in Pinar and some combination of Trinidad/Santiago de Cuba/Guntanamo. No flights or accommodations booked yet, but we are getting close to that time. My plan is to leave the morning after the 1 year anniversary of El Commandante's demise. I missed it by a few days last year. 1

Ethernut Posted August 11, 2017 Posted August 11, 2017 Was planning on going in November anyway. Interested at this point!

I know that there are going to be quite a few of us planning to be down there for that week of the Partagas Festival. As I stated above, I will also be spending the week after exploring the rest of the island with some friends/family. I don't have anything booked yet and my email to partagas regarding tickets to the event has gone unanswered as of right now. If you are interested in making the trip, keep your eye on this thread. Things should start to shake out soon.
Habana Mike Posted September 18, 2017 Posted September 18, 2017 Kelly and I are going down 11th-18th, plan to explore a little more outside Habana but will be around. See you there! 1
torsion Posted September 20, 2017 Posted September 20, 2017 Looking like I'll be seeing a few of you there! 1
upnflames Posted September 21, 2017 Posted September 21, 2017 Just got back from Havana and will be going back in November and again in Feb. What are the dates and what are the plans? Would be great to meet some of you all. Thanks cheers!
Charltonc Posted September 22, 2017 Posted September 22, 2017 I should be in Havana in November too.Sent from my SAMSUNG-SM-G920A using Tapatalk
upnflames Posted September 23, 2017 Posted September 23, 2017 The dates I am planning for are November 15th - 20th during the Partagas festival. I did not get a ticket however a couple of us will be going and just enjoying the weather and may or may not crash the Party festival. ?
Corylax18 Posted September 25, 2017 Posted September 25, 2017 Lets start getting something planned! I will be in Cuba November 12 - 25. Havana from Nov 12th to the 18th or 19th, then exploring the country from there. Hopefully a night or two a Hector Luis' FInca, then a flight out east to visit Commendancia de La Plata and for some Snorkeling and Sport Fishing. I think @nino, @Avrus, and @oliverdst are also planning to be in Havana around the same time. I haven't heard back from Partagas yet about Tickets for the festival, but we should be able to plan something around it. Lunch on the 13th or 14th or dinner on the 15th would all work around the Partagas schedule. Now the hard part, finding a respectable establishment that will take in this bunch. 1
Ryan Posted September 27, 2017 Posted September 27, 2017 For anybody going, here's the official list of events, dates and prices for Partagas 2017.Monday 13, 9:00 am - 7:00 pm, Accreditation at La Casa del Habano Partagas. (i.e. buy tickets for events)Tuesday 14, 7:00 pm Welcome Dinner. Habana Libre hotel. Cigars, rum and show. 150 CUCWednesday 15, 9:00 am Beach Day, Club Habana, beach, lunch, cigars and rum. 80 CUCThursday 16, 7:00am Day at the countryside. Visit to rum factories in Santiago. 300 CUC. *This price must include flights (I'm guessing). The train takes 13 hours.Friday 17, 7 pm Gala Dinner. El Laguito Protocolo room. Dinner, cigars, rum, awards and auction. 250 CUC*This is a much nicer room than the opening night room in the Habana Libre, unless they have the opener in the lobby of the Habana Libre which they did in 2011. That was pleasant enough. 2

Yes, I am planning but I learnt that after a 7 years marriage and a 5 years old boy things are not easy anymore. Now when I want to travel I buy the ticket and start planning the trip. If I plan and afterwards buy the ticket probably things will not work. 1

If I wasn't already planning to head out to SdC later in my trip, I would probably do the entire event. 300 CUC for a RT flight to ScD, a Rum Tasting, and Lunch is not a bad deal. I'm gunna try to call the shop later today to reserve my tickets. Apparently their email address isn't recognized by Google our outlooks servers anymore!

javonazul Posted October 12, 2017 Posted October 12, 2017 Going there! Meeting a few IG friends that I haven’t met in person and some that I have! Should be fun. Hope to meet some of you there.
puromaniac Posted October 16, 2017 Posted October 16, 2017 I know there will be a couple of us going from Vancouver. I had a blast last year and took in all but one event, but will be down with my Wife and more focussed on visiting Cuban friends and sightseeing, so only plan for sure on taking in the opening night dinner. For me it was the best event. 1
watches_whiskies_cigars Posted October 21, 2017 Posted October 21, 2017 I haven't been to the Partagas Festival before, nor Cuba, for that matter. Can a fellow FoH member enlighten me on how to get tickets for the events? Do you have to call the LCDH Partgas store and reserve your tickets and pay in CUC when you pick them up on Monday, November 13th? Thanks!
Habana Mike Posted November 5, 2017 Posted November 5, 2017 Just over a week away now! Who's confirmed? We're there 10th-18th and look forward to catching up and smoking with all the FOH crew that make it down. 2
Corylax18 Posted November 5, 2017 Posted November 5, 2017 I'll be in Havana the 12th to the 19th. Im planning to attend all the events except for the Santiago de Cuba excursion. See you next week!
