A December Full of Art and Tradition
The Vallarta Institute of Culture (IVC) has unveiled its cultural program for December, celebrating the Christmas season. With a minimalist yet meaningful approach, the activities aim to highlight local traditions and provide entertainment options for both residents and visitors to this world-class tourist destination.
The program features a selection of events carefully designed to capture the spirit of the season. While limited in number, the events promise artistic quality that reflects the cultural richness of Puerto Vallarta. Highlights of the program include:
Performances by the Xiutla Folkloric Ballet at Hidalgo Park every Friday at 7:30 PM.
Farmers Market at Lázaro Cárdenas Park every Saturday from 8 AM to 2 PM.
Christmas Race from McDonald’s to Lázaro Cárdenas Park on Sunday, December 15, at 7 AM.
Christmas Bazaar at Hidalgo Park on December 15 from 11 AM to 10 PM.
Theatrical Play: “The Night of the Great Miracle” at the Río Cuale Cultural Center from December 16 to 22, 8 PM to 10 PM.

The Vallarta Institute of Culture has reaffirmed its commitment to the community by prioritizing events that showcase local talent. “We want both Vallarta residents and tourists to enjoy a Christmas filled with art and tradition, highlighting what makes our destination unique,” commented a spokesperson for the institute.
The detailed program will be available on the IVC’s social media platforms and at key tourist spots throughout the city. Organizers invite the public to participate in these celebrations and enjoy a special Christmas in Puerto Vallarta.
A municipal government that promotes a robust and accessible cultural calendar during the holiday season not only celebrates the festive period but also fosters social cohesion, boosts the local economy, and strengthens Puerto Vallarta’s image as a premier cultural tourist destination. This effort is essential to establishing a precedent for effective governance and a commitment to the municipality’s comprehensive development.
Through this initiative, the Vallarta Institute of Culture solidifies its position as a cornerstone of artistic and cultural development in the region, enriching the Christmas experience for everyone who chooses this paradise destination for their holiday celebrations.
It is crucial for the new municipal government to set an example of good governance by elevating the quality of the artistic and cultural events calendar during the holiday season. These efforts not only strengthen local identity and the social fabric but also contribute to the region’s economic and tourism development.
