New Year’s parties at the waterfront

Live music for dancing will crank up at 9 p.m. in both locations. The Factory Show orchestra performs in Chapala with a wide repertoire of standard Mexican and international genres.   Sonora Parritos, Zona Cuba and Sonora Primavera are lined up for Ajijic in back-to-back sets featuring cumbia and tropical tunes.

Firework displays will simultaneously light up the sky and reflect in Lake Chapala’s water at the stroke  of midnight.

Party-goers are welcome arrive early to stake out territory with their own tables and chairs and carry in their own food and drinks to make a night of it. ¡Feliz Año Nuevo!
