With a wide variety of attractions and activities, a line-up of concerts and events, as well as a festive atmosphere for Yucatecan families and the attraction of visitors, Governor Mauricio Vila Dosal inaugurated the Yucatan Xmatkuil 2022 Fair, which is the most important of its kind in the southeast.
After two years of inactivity due to the pandemic, Vila Dosal led the opening of this great festival that with the theme “El Rodeo” reopens its doors from today until December 4, as the cultural, commercial and livestock showcase of reference in the region, contributing to the economic dynamics of the state in favor of Yucatecans.

In his message, the Governor affirmed that this Fair is a great space to promote the healthy coexistence of Yucatecans, but also represents an opportunity for families in the interior of the state to sell their products and handicrafts, which represents an important income that extends throughout the state.
Before thousands of families who gathered on this first day, Vila Dosal thanked the state, federal and municipal agencies that are participating in the organization of the 46th edition of this great fair for Yucatecans, which is being reactivated after 2 years of pandemic.
