In mid‑July 2026, the municipality of Soledad de Graciano Sánchez announced initiatives to boost local industry and launched a Xantolo cultural parade, signalling a broader effort to raise the town’s profile. A key component of this effort is a prominent presence at the Feria Nacional Potosina (FENAPO) 2026. Occupying a renovated stand in Pavilion 1 for the 24‑day event, the municipality is showcasing recent infrastructure projects—including the Valle de los Fantasmas boulevard bridge, the Circuito Potosí, and new urban parks—alongside its cultural and natural attractions like the Joya Honda site. Promotional activities highlight local gastronomy, specifically enchiladas potosinas, and the regional Wine Route featuring award‑winning vineyards such as Pozo de Luna, Viña Cordelia, and Bodega 1881. To encourage visitation, officials introduced an updated Tourist Passport 4.0 and a Tourist Memory display featuring local landmarks and notable personalities. To ensure accessibility for residents during the fair, which runs through August 30, the City Council has implemented free daily transportation. This service provides eight scheduled departures from the Jardín Principal starting at 15:00, with return trips throughout the evening to the FENAPO fairgrounds. By the opening weekend of FENAPO, the fair recorded over 650,000 visitors. Authorities reported a ‘saldo blanco’ (no major incidents) supported by a security deployment of over 1,500 elements and facial recognition technology. The broader FENAPO 2026 event also includes an Artisanal Pavilion inaugurated by Governor Ricardo Gallardo Cardona, featuring 600 participants from 42 municipalities, with state sales targets exceeding 29 million pesos. Soledad de Graciano Sánchez continues its participation at the fair with a dedicated stand to promote its wine routes and local gastronomy.
