Cabarete's calendar runs year-round: kiteboarding and windsurfing competitions, surf contests, wingfoil clinics, beach festivals, live music, artisan markets and food-and-drink nights. New events are added all the time — the calendar above shows every upcoming date.

Cabarete is the Dominican Republic's action-sports capital — kiteboarding, surfing, wingfoiling and SUP by day, then beach festivals, live music, yoga sessions, markets and dinners after. This page lists what's on so you can plan your trip around it.

The windy season, roughly June to September, brings the biggest kite and windsurf competitions and festivals. Cultural events, live music and markets run throughout the year, so there's something on in every season — check the calendar for exact dates.

Local businesses and organizers can submit events to Kitebarete over WhatsApp. Send us the details and we'll publish it after a quick review, so it shows up here and in the calendar.
