Chapala en Globo, lakeside’s first ever hot-air balloon festival, went on as scheduled May 26-28, despite detrimental weather that hampered both the main attraction and some collateral activities. 

Residents of the westside Ajijic subdivisions Villa Nova and Rancho del Oro who are less than satisfied with the speed of Telemex Infinitum internet service may be interested in a promising proposal launched by one of their neighbors.

Lake Chapala is becoming a new hot spot for sport fishing as a result of the National Black Bass Fishing Tournament, held May 26 and 27, attracting a large field of competitors from all parts of Mexico.  

Thrill-seekers are keeping their fingers crossed for fair weather on Sunday, June 4 to catch the Aero Fest Chapala, the second annual lakeside air show.

Thrills, chills and high adrenaline action are promised at Chapala’s second Aero Fest (air show), on schedule for Sunday, June 6, starting 10 a.m. 

With a focus on protecting the purity of Mexico’s most basic food crop, the first annual Ajijic Corn Festival was celebrated Saturday, May 20, tying into March Against Monsanto events held worldwide that day in opposition to the proliferation of genetically modified organisms (GMOs).
