In every square or plaza, you can listen to traditional songs, ballads with a bohemian feel, or you can enjoy the rhythmic sounds of the jarana every Monday in front of the city’s Palacio Municipal.
Among the most important celebrations that take place in the White City are la Festividad del Cristo de las Ampollas and Independence Day; both fall in the month of September. During that time, the streets of Merida are adorned with the flag’s red, white and green colors.

In November, Day of the Dead is celebrated with the preparation of the classical “muc-bil,” a tamal made with chicken and lard. During that same month, the X’Matkuil Fair takes place, which has an important display of farm animals, crafts and industrial supplies. While you there you can watch a rodeo, a bullfight or a cockfight. If that’s not for you, you can catch a live performance of numerous national and international musicians.
