Best time to go to Buenos Aires

Peak Season:

The city can be a little quiet from December to February, since many locals go on holiday during these months. Despite this, cheap flights to Buenos Aires can be tricky to find, as tourists take this time to flood the streets.
If you like mingling with your fellow visitors, this is a great time to listen to some music at the ND/Ateneo, see the wildlife at the Parque Temaikén, or spend a day shopping and sightseeing at San Telmo.

Shoulder Season:

The shoulder season in Buenos Aires falls from March to May, and September to November. Tourism dies down during these months; however, the city is still alive with events like Fashion Buenos Aires in March and September, the Feria Internacional del Libro in April and May, and the Casa Foa design fair in October and November.

Off Season:

Flights are usually very cheap from June to August, as tourism drastically declines during these chilly, wet-weather months. Those who do not mind the romantically gray days will be rewarded with events like the Buenos Aires Tango Festival and uncrowded attractions like the Latin American Art Museum of Buenos Aires.
