Ajijic’s madcap Año Nuevo parade

Ajijic will welcome 2017 in high spirits on Sunday, January 1, with the wild and whacky Desfile de Año Nuevo parade put on by residents of the west-end Barrio de Guadalupe.  

The parade features a string of whimsical floats filled with local folks dressed up in silly outfits, performing high-spirited antics as they rumble around the village.  

The paraders line up at Seis Esquinas, Ocampo at Alvaro Obregon, between Noon and 1 p.m., heading east towards the center of town once all are ready to go. The bizarre entourage finishes its run at the waterfront Tecoluta soccer field.
