The traditional Hot Air Balloon Festival in the municipality of Tahmek will return before the end of the summer vacation in Yucatán, so a large number of people are expected to attend.
This traditional festival features the participation of various artisans who create their own enormous balloons decorated in different shapes.
During this 100% family-friendly event, the aim is to give identity to the municipality and make it known as a town of balloon artisans, who, along with other producers in the cultural corridor, can sell their works to help improve their economy.
In 2023, the Hot Air Balloon Festival in Tahmek will take place on August 19th and 20th at the sports field of the municipality.
The events will begin from 6:00 PM, where attendees can witness the sky light up with dozens of floating lanterns from local and guest balloonists.
Tahmek is located 40 minutes away from the city of Mérida, allowing national and international tourists to attend and enjoy the event.
