Havana Cannon Shot ceremony Tour - El Cañonazo de las 9.00 - Description, Prices, Offers
The 9 PM ceremony of the cannon shot (ceremonia del cañonazo) is a must-see event filled with nostalgia and mystery. First, a lamplighter lights the gas lanterns. Then, a crier (a recruit with a voice so good he's been signed on permanently even though his military service ended years ago) begins an eery plainsong chant that reverberates throughout the fortress and, when the wind is right, across the bay to La Punta:
("Silence; night has fallen / The lanterns are lit / Our cannon is named Capitolino / At nine it will sound"). Finally, a detail of some half-dozen soldiers dressed in scarlet, 18th-century uniforms marches in and loads and fires the cannon, which make a deafening noise (cover your ears).

  • Departure from hotel to San Carlos de la Cabaña fortress to see the Cannon Shot Ceremony;.
