Ramos Fest 2026 cultural festival

Overview

The municipal government of Ramos Arizpe, Coahuila, led by Mayor Tomás Gutiérrez Merino, launched Ramos Fest 2026, a cultural festival running from August 28 to August 30, 2026. The event was designed to strengthen local identity and stimulate the regional economy through gastronomy, music, and tourism. On the opening day, August 28, an estimated 27,000 people attended activities including the Tamal and Pan de Pulque Fair and a ‘Callejoneada’ through the Historic Center. The evening featured a performance by Tropicalísimo Apache and the coronation of Jenny Deyanira Durán as the festival queen. Mayor Gutiérrez Merino expressed hope that total attendance would exceed 100,000 people over the three-day period. The festival concluded successfully, attracting over 100,000 visitors and generating an estimated economic impact of approximately 10 million pesos. A key highlight was the traditional Cabalgata, led by Coahuila Governor Manolo Jiménez Salinas and Mayor Gutiérrez Merino, intended to preserve regional customs. The festivities ended with a musical performance by Salomón Robles y sus Legendarios. Other scheduled culinary and musical events included the Lechón Fest and performances by El Poder del Norte. Local authorities noted that the event provided significant opportunities for regional entrepreneurs and helped promote tourism within the Southeast Region of Coahuila. Following the conclusion of the event, municipal authorities reported a safe outcome with no major incidents. Mayor Gutiérrez Merino attributed the lack of significant issues to coordinated efforts between security forces, the implementation of preventive protocols, and responsible attendee behavior. The influx of visitors, which included travelers from Nuevo León, Zacatecas, and Durango, benefited local merchants and service providers. In the wake of the festival, the municipality reported that road maintenance and pothole repairs were conducted throughout August to improve mobility in various neighborhoods and industrial sectors.
