There are many ramadas, which are feasts where people dance the cueca.
I couldn't find a translation of ramadas, but I think they are a type of shelter made from tree branches. This doesn't make much sense from this context. It might just be the type of fiestas and can't really be transated. Maybe one of the native speakers will have more information to share with us.

Cueca is the national dance of Bolivia and Chile. The usual interpretation of this courting dance is zoomorphic: it tries to reenact the courting ritual of a rooster and a hen. The male displays a quite enthusiastic and at times even aggressive attitude while attempting to court the female, who is elusive, defensive and demure.
