Celebrate the independence of Mexico in Vallarta

There are various ways to celebrate our traditions during the national month, and in Puerto Vallarta, everything is dyed green, white and red to commemorate the 213th Anniversary of our Independence.

If you plan to visit this charming city, we will welcome you with the warm hospitality of our people, authentic typical dishes and the streets of the Central Zone and its surroundings adorned with national elements. This will allow you to relive the pride of being Mexican, the resilience of our nation and the strength of its people. We are waiting for you with open arms to celebrate this important date together!

As in the rest of the country, in Puerto Vallarta you can see numerous Mexican-themed ornaments in plazas, public spaces, residences and even vehicles.

 During this month, everything is valid to manifest the unbreakable patriotic spirit that distinguishes us. Stalls and street vendors offer a wide range of items, from small flags to bugles and pennants, and even accessories such as earrings and necklaces with the colors of our national flag.

When you explore the Downtown Zone of Puerto Vallarta, you will come across a varied selection of shops offering everything from traditional sweets to unique jewelry, local art galleries and craft shops from different regions of the country. You might even have the opportunity to witness artisans creating Huichol pieces or working with blown glass. The options for discovering that special souvenir are practically endless. By making a purchase, you are supporting local commerce and acquiring a unique piece, either for yourself or as a gift, or to add an authentic Mexican touch to your home.
