Guelaguetza 2022
The guelaguetza is a commemorative event celebrated annually in July in Oaxaca, where the eight regions that make up the state gather to share their traditions, dances, and food with different tourists, whether local, national, or international.
This event began in pre-Hispanic times when the Zapotecs performed dances for the different gods.
During July, Oaxaca is filled with colors, food, and good music, since different events will give you a great experience like the parade of the delegations that takes place in the main streets of downtown Oaxaca on Saturdays before the Guelaguetza, where inhabitants of the 8 regions gather and parade giving us a little bit of their culture.
Another essential and awaited event is the mezcal fair where you can taste all the varieties of mezcals made in this state, besides eating regional snacks made by Mexican cooks.
