AGP Executive Report
Last update: 2 hours agoFilm & Tourism Spotlight: Costa Rica Media Market’s Desde el Centro (July 14-15, San José) spotlights rising Central American talent, including Chilean star Paulina García’s project “Victoria in the Clouds” and Costa Rica’s Tres Tigres-backed “Quemada,” with major global producers like Disney and MrBeast joining meetings and familiarization tours. Weather & Safety: El Niño heat is already raising Costa Rica’s heatstroke risk; health experts urge steady hydration (don’t wait to feel thirsty) and extra caution for kids, older adults, and people with chronic conditions. Travel Disruption: Route 27 traffic is set for a one-way reversal toward San José during the afternoon school-break return rush (2–6 p.m., Pozón to Ciudad Colón), with setup starting 1 p.m. and full disruption lasting until about 7 p.m. Currency Watch: The weak dollar is hitting government finances, with Finance Ministry figures pointing to reduced income tax and VAT collections—good for dollar-debt holders, but tougher for those paid in colones. Visa Planning: Germany published its 2026 visa-free list for 62 countries (up to 90 days in 180), which includes Costa Rica.
