History
The first Trujillo Spring Festival[1] was held in 1950. Some of the most appreciated participants in the festival each year are the "Guaripolas". The Guaripolas animate the principal parade and give artistic presentations in several locations in the city.[2][3]
Description
The Guaripola is generally a young girl who leads every band of musicians in the principal parade for the Spring Festival.
