With the premiere of the show “3×3 is 11“, the eleventh edition of the National Festival of Satyricon Humor 2025 will be inaugurated in Holguin, which will run until March 2.
The event, sponsored by the Center for the Promotion of Humor, with the support of the Provincial Directorate of Culture, will offer the public nine shows in the Raúl Camayd Hall of the Eddy Suñol Theater and will reach the university venues with workshops, conferences and presentations.
Eider Luis Pérez, president of the organizing committee and general director of the event, informed the press that the edition welcomes guests from all over the country, including La Leña del Humor, Michel Pentón and Jorge Bacallao, and on this occasion brings together the members of Etcétera, who announced their separation last year.
He also commented that the National Festival of Satyricon Humor celebrates the 30th anniversary of the Dúo Caricare, a Holguin group founded in 1995, made up of Onelio Escalona and Mireya Abreu, deserving in its extensive history of recognitions for the quality and diversity of its proposals.
The world premiere of the number “Los plagiadores de Etcétera“ stood out along with other innovative presentations for the public such as “Juicio Final“, under the direction of Osvaldo Doimeadios, and “2025, dando leña“, by La Leña del Humor, directed by Maikel Ferralbo. He also highlighted the objective of involving young people and students in the creation and appreciation of humor in meetings scheduled at the University of Holguin to offer the necessary tools to express their vision of the world through comedy.
The National Festival of Satirical Humor, considered the second most important in the country after “El Aquelarre”, in Havana, has an annual appointment in the city of Holguin, establishing itself since its first editions as the ideal space to celebrate the talent of renowned artists from the largest of the Antilles.
