  • El Festival del Bambuco en San Juan y San Pedro o anteriormente conocido como «Festival Folclórico, Reinado Nacional del Bambuco y Muestra Internacional del Folclor»​, es una de las fiestas más importantes del sur de Colombia, específicamente del departamento del Huila, cuya capital, Neiva, es la sede del festival.
