The video mapping of the Monument to the Fatherland takes place on the "Saturdays of Biciruta" which takes place on the first Saturday of each month.

It is an event of lights that enriches the experience of enjoying the Paseo de Montejo during the nights and allows us to know the history of this iconic monument of the city of Mérida.

First saturday evening every month the Paseo closes down one side of the road for the La Bici Ruta (Bike Route) to allow cyclists a chance to ride around town. Much of the city comes out to join in, there are roller bladers, skateboarders and lots of opportunity to people watch at the sidewalk cafes. You can also rent all kinds of bikes from family ones to individual to take in the tour yourself.

Since the 1980s, every Sunday, the Merida Historical Center closes its streets to vehicular traffic and is transformed into a large urban kermes, with a wide range of activities and food and beverages. During this day, which covers the streets selling authentic Yucatecan crafts, old books and other curiosities, recreational activities, children's didactic and folkloric shows are offered, such as the traditional "Vaquería" and the beautiful "Mestizo Wedding".

The Mexican night, aims to entertain and entertain attendees through culture, cuisine, folklore and state, national and international music. From here you can get to know and enjoy the Mexican and Yucatecan cultural wealth, through accessories, articles, handicrafts, dances and typical food.

For 13 years this Saturday event has been the scene of multiple dance and popular music groups, both from Yucatan and other states, and even outside the Mexican Republic, where the ballet of Cuba and Belize stand out. The best thing is that the entrance to this site is completely free for the whole family, so spending a fun night in every way is achieved in a very simple and economical way.

Pok-Ta–Pok is an ancient Mayan ball game, that was played thousands of years ago as part of a sacred, sacrificial ceremony, pitting good against evil. The general belief is that the ball, five pounds of solid rubber, could only be hit with forearms and thighs. The goal of the game was to maneuver the ball through a stone hoop extending from a wall.

Saturday nights the ancient sport is reenacted in front of Merida Cathedral–luckily though, sans sacrifice. It's fun to watch and it gets pretty crazy towards the end, when the ball is literally ON FIRE, prompting faster passes, for sure.

"Piedras Sagradas"(Sacred Stones) Video mapping: is a video mapping show on the facade of the Cathedral of San Ildefonso. It combines several techniques of 3D and 2D animation to provide a historical account of the creation of the building, built with stones from the ancient Mayan city of Thó, as well as its meaning for the inhabitants of this city. The audiovisual journey is accompanied by a narrative in 12 verses created exclusively for the cathedral and the musicalization is accompanied by the members of the choir of the city of Mérida and its sacred songs.

Mérida’s many historic plazas are jam packed with open air event throughout the year. Popular with tourists and locals alike is Yucatecan “Jarana”, a traditional form of dance accompanied by live music.

One of the best places to see the show is at “Serenata Yucateca”, a free event each Thursday in the newly restored Plaza Santa Lucía, a traditional square just four blocks from the main Centro plaza. The musicians, singers and dancing “mestizos”, decked out in their colorful costumes begin the show at 9 PM, as they have for the last 40 years.

There are plenty of benches to sit to enjoy the show. Also, with restaurants and bars spilling out on the sidewalk, its a great way to catch a dinner and show.

It is said that to know a city well, it is necessary to go to the market and the cemetery. In Mérida you can take both tours, take photographs and live the experience. But in the case of the cemetery, we recommend a different visit with a guide who will tell you those anecdotes that you would not otherwise know and live and at night!

The night tours in the General Cemetery of the city take place every Wednesday at 8pm at no cost. Departures are made in the main house located inside the pantheon. Come and learn more about this characteristic place in the city!

Each Tuesday, locals from in around central Mérida descend on the square in Parque Santiago to dance “danzon” under the stars at the weekly event called “Remembranzas Musicales”. A form of dance and music, “danzón” was introduced from Cuba to México in the early Twentieth Century. Cuban inspired rhythms from the 1930’s and 40’s are just what is takes to get this crowd moving.

Each week, elegant ladies and immaculately dressed men kick up their heels to live music provided by the City Band. The average age of the dancers is north of 50, but they know their moves and it always draws a festive crowd. Everybody is welcome to join in, even if you are not the worlds best dancer. If not, you can take a seat on the sidelines and simply enjoy the festivities.

Also, with a night market of restaurants adjacent to the plaza and tables spilling out under the night sky, its a great spot to enjoy the show while sampling local dishes like panuchos, salbutes, tamales and sopa de lima.

Parque Santiago is in Mérida Centro, four blocks from Méridas main plaza.
