On the evening of September 15, the traditional “Grito de Independencia” is celebrated throughout Mexico when authorities in Mexico from the President to Municipal Mayors and invited guests gather on balconies of public buildings at approximately 11pm to shout out “Viva México” three times in memory of the declaration of the Mexican War of Independence on September 16, 1810.
For this year’s annual celebration, Mazatlán’s Cultural Institute and municipal government have lined up an impressive array of free performances in the Plazuela República in front of city hall.
Performances begin at 8pm and this year will include Gerardo Bazúa, Luz María and Marcos Razo, three winners of the television program “The Voice Mexico.”
Also performing will be the Folkloric Ballet, La Banda de Jazz, the Angela Peralta Chorale, singer Oscar Gómez accompanied by the Banda La Mazatleca and the Continental Mariachi group. Popular clown Trikis Trakes will be roaming through the crowd to delight children with his antics.
The evening will be rounded out with a spectacular fireworks display and dancing in the Plazuela.
On Tuesday morning, September 16, at approximately 9am the annual commemorative parade will take place along the Malecón and in El Centro.
