Independence Day Celebrations – September 15 & 16

Independence Day turns Ajijic into a vibrant scene of music, food, and national pride. On the night of September 15, the main plaza becomes a festive fair with food stalls, games, folk dancing, live mariachi, and families dressed in traditional colors waiting for the historic “Grito de Independencia” and the fireworks show. The atmosphere is joyful and welcoming, ideal for anyone who wants to truly feel the spirit of “¡Viva México!”. On the morning of the 16th, a civic parade winds through the streets, with local schools, cultural groups, and civic associations marching in uniform and historical costumes. Afterward, families gather for traditional dishes and relaxed celebrations. Stay at Hotel Casa Blanca Ajijic and enjoy the Independence Day festivities just steps away from the plaza.
