Dates
No dates have been published yet. These are expected from the pattern of past years.
How we estimated this: Two prior editions fell on a late-June Sunday: Sunday 29 June (El País, 2025 article, quoted as '32° Concurso Nacional del Yipao- domingo 29 de junio') and Sunday 28 June 2026 (Crónica del Quindío, e1). No 2027 dates have been announced by any source I could fetch.
“La elección y coronación de la nueva reina nacional del Café, este domingo 28 de junio. … Mañana domingo, también desde la 1 p. m., se cumplirá el Desfile y Concurso del Yipao, en su edición número 32.”

How we checked
Last checked October 20, 2026 against calarca-quindio.gov.co. Before anything appears here, a separate check fetches each source again and confirms that every date we show is in the quoted text.
Notes from the last check
The Yipao parade is verified as held in Calarcá on Sunday 28 June 2026, from a pre-event Crónica del Quindío article and a 1 July 2026 report that more than 90 vehicles took part; the Alcaldía homepage is cited as the official URL, but no Yipao-specific official page was found. The next edition (2027) is expected for late June on the basis of two prior Sunday editions, with no dates announced; the result is partial.
