Puerto Vallarta's Christmas Festival Lights Up the Bay

Puerto Vallarta is gearing up for a festive fiesta that promises to dazzle locals and visitors alike. Get ready to jingle all the way from December 9 to 31 as the First Christmas Parade descends upon our sun-soaked shores, adding an extra dose of merriment to the already vibrant Christmas Festival 2023.

At a press conference that was more spirited than Santa's sleigh ride, the dynamic team behind this jolly jamboree spilled the cocoa beans on the upcoming celebrations. Christian Salvador Preciado Cázares, the maestro of Tourism and Economic Development, gleefully shared, “We're flipping the tinsel switch on December 9 with the lighting of the Christmas tree near the Malecon Arches, serenaded by saxophones and carols. It's not your average tree lighting—this one comes with a musical twist!”
