During the festival, visitors can expect an exciting lineup of performances, including concerts by Madera Viva, Korazound, Blues la Conexión, and Trio Huapango Gorrión Huasteco. The performing arts scene will feature shows by Circo Teatro, Atabal Teatro, and Teatrito La Carcajada, while children’s activities will include storytelling and a performance by Los Banyasos.
