The Teletón 2026 charity event in Costa Rica, organized by the Club Activo 20-30, is scheduled for November 20 and 21 under the slogan ‘¡Hagamos que suene!’. 

The campaign has established a fundraising goal of 500 million colones. All proceeds are designated for the Hospital Nacional de Geriatría y Gerontología Raúl Blanco Cervantes to strengthen medical services in the ophthalmology and primary care departments for the elderly. 

The event will return to the Gimnasio Nacional, a venue that has not hosted the Teletón since 1999. A lineup of national and international artists is expected to be announced in early October.
