Festival of Mexico
The 'Festival del Centro Historico' (Festival in the Historic
Centre) was inaugurated in 1985 as an exercise in aid of rescuing
and restoring the historic art and architecture of Mexico City's
degenerating town centre. The event has now earned a reputation as
one of the most vibrant celebrations of art and culture in Latin
America. During the two-week festival each year more than 100
performances take place from opera and chamber music, through jazz,
folk and pop to theatre, and classical ballet. In addition there
are exhibitions, gourmet food, master classes and workshops,
conferences and lectures by renowned artists, authors and
poets.
