Fiesta de la Guerra de Independencia 10 Octubre (todos los años)
*The Ten Years War began on 10 October 1868 under the leadership of the attorney Carlos Manuel de Cespedes and seconded by a group of patriots in the sugar mill La Demajagua, calling for liberty and independence of the island. Cespedes attacked the small town of Yara on October 11, from which this revolution took its name. The 10 October date is commemorated as a national holiday under the name Grito de Yara ("Shout of Yara"). The Ten-Years War (Guerra de los Diez Anos), was the first of three wars that Cuba fought against Spain, it lasted from 1868 to 1878, the other two being The Small War (La Guerra Chiquita, 1879-1880) and the Cuban War of Independence (1895-1898). The final 3 months of the last conflict escalated to become the Spanish-American War. ***Wikipedia
