San Luis Potosí FENAPO 2026 concludes with record attendance

Overview

The 46th Feria Nacional Potosina (FENAPO) in San Luis Potosí has concluded, surpassing initial projections with a record-breaking attendance of over 10 million visitors. Governor Ricardo Gallardo Cardona and Patronato President Fernando Rojo Ocejo reported that the 24-day event achieved a “saldo blanco” (no major incidents), a success they credited to coordinated security, civil protection, and medical services.

The entertainment schedule featured high-profile international and national artists, including Katy Perry, Mötley Crüe, Bizarrap, and Los Tigres del Norte. The event emphasized accessibility through a free admission policy and free concerts in general areas, attracting families and tourists from various regions. Family attractions, such as the Royal Star Circus, remained a staple of the festivities.

Beyond entertainment, the fair maintained significant commercial activity with 432 exhibitors. To conclude the season, the “Los Gritones” commercial area was extended for three additional days to offer final discounts on clothing, toys, and household goods.

Separately, local governance in San Luis Potosí has seen shifts toward new civic engagement models. Mayor Enrique Galindo Ceballos presented a citizen participation model at the NovaGob México Congress, detailing the democratic election of representatives for 258 participation boards. This model integrates 855 citizen security committees that utilize a digital platform for information sharing, intended to assist in crime prevention and reduce the perception of crime within the city.
