Guanajuato is participating as the Guest of Honor, featuring a pavilion of 22 companies spanning the agro-food, artisan, leather, and textile ~~sectors.~~ sectors with an investment of 1.5 million pesos. During the opening ceremonies, Guanajuato Governor Libia Dennise García Muñoz Ledo recognized Governor Cardona as a strategic regional ally, emphasizing bilateral cooperation in security, tourism, and economic development. To manage large crowds, local authorities have implemented specialized traffic operations, including designated pedestrian zones and one-way street changes, alongside strict entry protocols regarding prohibited items. Security measures for the festival include an Integral Security Operative and the use of high-tech tools, such as robotic dogs, to enhance surveillance. While these measures have been deployed, some local commentary has raised questions regarding the necessity of certain high-tech security tools. The entertainment lineup features performances by artists such as Gloria Trevi, with upcoming scheduled acts including Mötley Crüe and Katy Perry.
