Imperial Celebrates Costa Ricans Abroad Through Cultural Events

Imperial, a beer brand from Costa Rica, has launched the "Es de Ticos" platform to celebrate and connect with Costa Ricans living abroad. The initiative aims to bring the nation's cultural experiences to cities around the world that host significant expatriate communities.

The platform will facilitate events such as Costa Rican-style dinners, piñata activities, traditional "mascaradas" (masked performances), and stand-up comedy. These gatherings are designed to create spaces for expatriates to maintain connections with their heritage and the culture of their home country.

Data from Costa Rica's Supreme Electoral Tribunal shows that over 63,000 Costa Ricans were registered to vote from abroad in 2026, indicating a substantial global expatriate population. Common reasons for emigration include opportunities in education, employment, and family reunification.

Fabian Loría, Brand Manager for Imperial, stated: "Costa Ricans may build their lives in different parts of the world, but they maintain a very special connection to their traditions and roots. Through these activities, we want to recognise and celebrate the elements that bring us together and remain part of the Costa Rican experience, wherever we may be."
