At just 1,500 meters above sea level, Pereira is the warmest city in the Zona Cafetera, so it sees a fair bit of sunshine. Still, it can be a bit cooler and rainier in April and October. Small food festivals are held in the Plaza Bolívar three times a year to celebrate the variety of food like mazamorra (a dessert made from corn, milk, and agua de panela). Also, for about five days at the end of August the city holds its annual Fiestas de la Cosecha, which celebrates the season of harvest with food and drink.
