South American Bird Fair

The South American Bird Fair is the most important of its kind on the continent and is held every year in a different country. The Fair is a meeting with many dimensions that includes birding (in various ecosystems depending on the host country), workshops with specialists from all over the world, exhibits (with optics, equipment, books, tour guides, NGOs, art, etc.), talks, forums and symposiums, and many bird-related activities expanding throughout the continent.

In 2026, Paraguay will proudly welcome the XV South American Bird Fair for the very first time. With more than 700 bird species soaring across diverse landscapes—from the wetlands of the Pantanal to the vast Chaco and lush eastern forests—Paraguay offers an unforgettable paradise for birdwatchers and nature lovers alike.

Its national parks and reserves shelter iconic birds, such as the Bare-throated Bellbird and yaguarete. Visitors can immerse themselves in guided hikes, photo safaris, and eco-adventures through breathtaking habitats that blend wetlands, forests, and grasslands.

Paraguay is emerging as one of South America’s most exciting destinations for birdwatching and ecotourism. The XV South American Bird Fair 2026 will be the perfect opportunity to discover its extraordinary biodiversity and rich culture.
