Various communities across Argentina are holding events to commemorate Immigrant Day, celebrating the diverse cultural roots that have shaped the nation's identity.

In Caleta Olivia, the municipality organized a meeting at the El Mirador Library to share historical documentation and personal stories. In Bariloche, the Association of Friends of European-Argentine Collectivities hosted a cultural gathering featuring traditional music and dances from several nations, including Scotland, Chile, Ireland, Hungary, Bolivia, Spain, Germany, and Russia. 

Tandil's Union of Collectivities held a ceremony to honor immigrant groups, specifically noting Croatian and Montenegrin stonecutters, while Berisso celebrated its 49th annual Immigrant Festival with the ‘Desembarco de los inmigrantes’ parade. These celebrations in provinces like Buenos Aires trace back to an 1812 decree intended to encourage immigration to the United Provinces of the Río de la Plata.
