The heart of Mexico City is alive with festive spirit as the much-anticipated CDMX Verbena Navideña 2024 engages residents and tourists alike with its array of free concerts and cultural activities. Since its commencement on December 17, the event has become one of the most cherished seasonal attractions, promising delightful entertainment for people of all ages.
Set to run until December 30, the Verbena Navideña showcases not only the dynamic ambiance of the Zócalo, but also presents opportunities to enjoy various cultural performances. Among the stars prominently featured is Chetes, the beloved singer known for hits like “Por un amor,” who will take center stage on Saturday, December 28, 2024.
With performances kicking off at 2:30 PM, attendees can look forward to a jubilant lineup. The day begins with Cacomixtle performing from 2:30 to 3:15 PM, followed by Somos Danza EnSeña from 3:30 to 4:15 PM. From there, audiences can enjoy El Real Agasajo, La Demonia, and Friend of a Friend, creating the perfect lead-up to Chetes's concert, which is scheduled from 7:30 to 9:00 PM.
“No te pierdas la oportunidad de escuchar los más grandes éxitos de Chetes completamente gratis en el Zócalo de la CDMX esto como parte de la Verbena Navideña 2024,” declares EXA, emphasizing the accessibility of this cultural treasure.
This year's Verbena is more than just music; it's all about making memories and experiencing the vibrant traditions of Mexico City during the holiday season. The festivities encompass art installations throughout the Zócalo, enchanting displays of lights, and even snow activities, albeit without the traditional ice rink.
Ensuring smooth access for all, the Mexico City government has laid out various transportation routes. Attendees can conveniently reach the Zócalo via the Line 2 (blue line) of the Metro, disembarking at the Zócalo-Tenochtitlán station. Alternatively, the Line 4 of the Metrobús, stopping at the Museo de la Ciudad, is another great option for revelers.
On December 29, the excitement continues with another slate of live performances, including vibrant mariachi music and performances by Mexican punk bands. The musical offerings on this day encompass local acts, turning the Zócalo once again to the festive heart of the city.
During the festival, safety precautions are advised as large crowds are expected; families are encouraged to enjoy the festivities together. With the variety of attractions, there's something for everyone at the Verbena—be it music lovers, dance enthusiasts, or families seeking joy during this special time of year.
Mark your calendars and plan to join the locals celebrating the end of the year with music, laughter, and cultural bonding at the Verbena Navideña 2024. The event encapsulates the spirit of togetherness, inviting everyone to create cherished memories this December.
