If you don’t know what Lollapalooza is, well, no worries. In short, this is a North American music festival that has been present since 1991, in which different bands come together. Currently, it is celebrated not only in the USA, but in different places as well, such as Chile (March 17, 18, and 19), Argentina (March 17, 18, and 19), and Brazil (March 24, 25, and 26).

You will also be able to enjoy great food and spend some time in a beautiful and open space.

The Dominican Republic is a place to relax

In this beautiful country, you will be able to visit Punta Cana, a city that is known for having some of the most beautiful beaches in the world, with white sands and turquoise waters that are great for swimming or doing sports such as kayaking, snorkeling, windsurfing, kite-surfing, diving, and more.

We recommend you travel during the first weeks of March because, with the arrival of Easter, prices tend to rise, due to the high season.

Unmissable destinations in North America for 2023

The USA, Miami will shake with the Ultra Music Festival

You are probably wondering what month is great to travel to the United States, so if you like to go to the beach, enjoy concerts and musical performances, visit Latino neighborhoods and at the same time go partying or shopping. March is one of the best months to visit the iconic place.

Mexico and the shadow of Kukulkan

Mexico is one of the most popular countries to travel to in March, so it is a destination that you should consider if you plan to travel to North America. In this beautiful country, you can find the Kukulkan temple, and with the arrival of spring, a phenomenon happens and attracts thousands of tourists a year.

This phenomenon is produced by the sun, which, when shining against the temple, manages to create a shadow that generates an optical effect, resulting in the figure of a snake that climbs up one of the sides of the pyramid, alluding to the god Mayan also known as the Feathered Serpent.

You can also tour the complete Yucatán peninsula so that you can witness its beautiful colonial architecture, dive in the cenotes, swim on the beaches of the Riviera Maya, and party in places like Coco Bongo in Playa del Carmen.

Great European destinations to visit during March

During this month, temperatures in Europe are a little bit low but don’t worry, it does not mean that you cannot enjoy some of the European destinations.

France, Auvergne-Rhône-Alpes will host Tomorrowland Winter

This is one of the most beautiful places in France, as it is a land full of snow-capped mountains, ski resorts, and spas. Although on this occasion, our recommendation is located in Huez, specifically in Alpe d’Huez, since Tomorrowland Winter 2023 will be held there (from March 18 to 25).

At this festival, you will not only be able to enjoy beautiful electronic music, but you will also have the opportunity to ski on the mythical slopes of the French Alps. You can’t ask for more.

Ireland and the famous Saint Patrick festival

On March 17 of every year, Saint Patrick’s Day is celebrated in Ireland. This festival is very well-known worldwide, not so much for its meaning but for how it is celebrated.

Usually, the celebrations begin a couple of days before, so the entire city dresses in green, and the buildings are decorated with motifs alluding to the festivity. On St. Patrick’s Day, there are parades all over the streets, concerts, live shows, green food and drinks, fireworks, and much more.

On Saint Patrick’s Day, the most consumed drink is beer, and within its typical dishes, we recommend you try the roast chicken, the Guinness stew, and the shamrock shake cupcakes. Did you know that the best St. Patrick’s parades are in the United States? Specifically in Boston, New York, and Chicago.

Iceland is the best time to enjoy the northern lights

When March begins, the land of ice and fire gets ready to display the breath-talking northern lights in all their splendor, which makes this country an excellent option for travelers to enjoy this phenomenon in Iceland.

During the month of March, the hours of sunshine increase, which is great for activities such as trekking, whale watching, visiting ice caves or glaciers along with their waterfalls, volcano tours, observing the country’s famous geysers, and enjoying the natural thermal pools.
