According to the Regional Office of Foreign Trade and Tourism (Gercetur), visitor numbers could easily surpass 70,000, possibly reaching an impressive 90,000 or more. What’s drawing the crowds? A lineup of unforgettable experiences: from the cobblestone magic of the historic center to the awe-inspiring beauty of Machu Picchu, the Sacred Valley, Vinicunca (the Rainbow Mountain), Humantay Lagoon, and deeply rooted religious routes in Cusco’s provinces.

This year, Cusco festivals are expected to attract a 60/40 split between international and national travelers. With foreigners estimated to spend around $1,500 each, and Peruvians contributing roughly 1,500 soles per person, the local economy, especially hotels, restaurants, transport services, and tour operators, will see a powerful boost.

To ensure a safe and seamless experience, the city’s festival company (Emufec) will work alongside the National Police and Public Ministry to coordinate safety efforts, while provincial municipalities will manage security in their own regions.

Cusco festivals in June don't stop

June’s cultural calendar is packed with highlights: school parades, the sacred Corpus Christi celebration, the spiritual journey to Qoyllur Riti, and the legendary festival of the sun, Inti Raymi, taking place at the majestic Sacsayhuamán.

Despite planned demonstrations by local unions around June 23–24, authorities remain optimistic. Gercetur’s manager, Rosendo Baca Palomino, expressed hope for a peaceful resolution that won’t disrupt the festivities.

All signs point to Cusco becoming the cultural epicenter of Peru this June, a place where history comes alive and every celebration tells a story.
