The Carnaval de Campeche is expected to change venues due to a 300 million peso state-led project to transform the Foro Ah Kim Pech into a multifunctional Scenic Cultural Center. Managed by the Secretariat of Urban Development, Mobility, and Public Works (SEDUMOP), the project involves an estimated 10 months of construction following a bidding process.

In response to the development, the collective ‘Ciudadanos por Campeche’ has demanded greater transparency. The group criticized the absence of community consultation and public presentations regarding the project. They have requested access to the complete executive project, environmental impact assessments, and soil mechanics studies, while calling for a suspension of bidding and construction activities until citizen participation rights are guaranteed.
