    CDMX Events Guide: What's Happening This Week (Mar 09–15)

    Week of

    Vive Latino 2026

    Some weeks feel loud before they even start, like the city’s already humming in anticipation. Maybe it’s the thought of Vive Latino 2026 swallowing Estadio GNP Seguros again — that surge of bodies and sound is its own weather system. Or maybe it’s the contrast of the Hot Air Balloon Ride over Teotihuacán, where sunrise makes the Pyramid of the Sun look unreal and you’re still deciding whether to sip the bubbly now or after landing. If you’re sorting out what to do in CDMX, those two alone could anchor your whole week, and honestly, I never get tired of that festival chaos.

    🎵 Concerts in Mexico City This Week

    1Vive Latino 2026

    📅 Saturday, March 14 — Other

    Seeing the Vive Latino crowd fill Estadio GNP Seguros is its own kind of rush — it’s one of the few festivals here that still feels genuinely massive. The lineup always mixes legacy acts with newer projects that don’t usually get stadium-size crowds, which is half the fun. It’s chaotic, sweaty, and a little overwhelming in the best way. Go if you like days where you lose track of time and run into friends you didn’t even know were going.

    2Pulsar

    📅 Monday, March 09, 1:30 PM — Roma Norte

    Nine percussionists playing fully improvised music at Foro Indie Rocks! is already a wild premise, and Pulsar leans into the ritual vibe hard. Santiago Vázquez has been doing this sign-based rhythm thing for years, and it’s hypnotic when the group locks in. The whole show feels more like a live organism than a concert. If you like nights where you end up dancing without realizing it, this one hits.

    3Los Calzones

    📅 Wednesday, March 11, 8:30 PM — Molino Del Rey

    The return of Los Calzones to Lunario hits that sweet spot between nostalgia and fresh material — they’re coming to officially present their new album, Huella. Lunario’s 1,000-cap room always gives ska shows this punchy, close-range feel, and these guys know how to work that energy. Expect horns, sweat, and a crowd that’s been waiting a while. If you like your live music loud and a bit chaotic, this will scratch the itch.

    4Dimitri and the Witches "Between Closed Doors"

    📅 Thursday, March 12, 7:30 PM — Roma Norte

    A one-night-only intimate set at Primitivo Club is a cool move for Dimitri y las brujas, especially with the focus on their new album, Entrepuertas Cerradas. They’re promising unique versions and stories behind the songs, which suits the small-room vibe in Roma Norte. Shows like this feel more like hanging out with the band than watching from afar. Worth it if you like seeing artists break character a little.

    5Marina

    📅 Thursday, March 12, 9:00 PM — Napoles

    Marina bringing the Princess of Power Tour to the Pepsi Center feels like a long-awaited return. Her last cycle leaned heavy into glittery pop catharsis, and the new tour seems to push that even further. The room is big enough for the spectacle but still compact enough to actually see her face, which helps. Great pick if you like pop shows that go full theatrical without losing the emotional punch.

    🌙 Nightlife in Mexico City This Week

    1Cultura Subterránea Mx

    📅 Friday, March 13, 9:00 PM — Roma Norte

    Cultura Subterránea Mx usually pulls a crowd that’s deep into electronic music, and Tonalá 171 in Roma Norte handles those late-night sets surprisingly well. They bring in international DJs more often than you’d expect for a party this size, which keeps the sound fresh. It’s a tighter, sweatier room, so skip it if you need space. Otherwise, it’s one of those parties where you end up staying longer than planned.

    2Yellow Claw

    📅 Sunday, March 15, 7:00 PM — Juarez

    Yellow Claw landing at Looloo means a night of trap‑leaning electronic sets packed into a club that’s already loud on a normal weekend. They’ve been pushing that hybrid electronic–hip hop energy for years, and it still hits hard in smaller rooms. Juárez crowds show up early for this kind of thing, so expect a shoulder‑to‑shoulder dance floor. Go if you want a sweaty, maximalist night out.

    Yellow Claw

    3KRAKKEN

    📅 Thursday, March 12 — Centro

    KRAKKEN at Dobermann Donceles usually means a darker, faster electronic night in one of Centro’s most reliable rooms. The space is small enough that the booth feels right on top of the dance floor, which works when the DJs go heavy. Sound is punchy, lights are minimal, and the crowd is mostly regulars. Great if you like your club nights intense and zero-frills.

    🤝 Social Events in Mexico City This Week

    1fnMexico City Chapter Coffee Connect

    📅 Friday, March 13, 5:00 AM — Roma Norte

    The Friday Coffee Connect at Blend Station in Roma Norte is exactly what it sounds like — an early meetup over solid coffee before the day gets chaotic. It skews toward people in tech or remote work, but the vibe stays pretty low-pressure. You usually end up bouncing between tables, chatting with whoever’s around, nothing forced. Good if you like social hangouts that don’t stretch into the evening.

    2LANGUAGE EXCHANGE 5:00-8:00 PM

    📅 Monday, March 09, 5:00 PM — Letran Valle

    This language exchange bouncing into Dulce Sensación Universidad hits that sweet spot between structured and chaotic — three hours of casual conversation where people actually rotate and talk. The organizer keeps it friendly and the crowd is usually a mix of students, travelers, and long-timers learning Spanish or English. It’s one of the few language exchange nights that doesn’t feel like homework. Great if you just want to practice without feeling judged.

    LANGUAGE EXCHANGE 5:00-8:00 PM

    3MoB Centro - Carl's Jr. (Revolución)

    📅 Wednesday, March 11, 6:20 PM — Tabacalera

    MoB taking over the second floor of the Carl’s Jr. at Glorieta de Colón is very on brand — board games in the most unpretentious space possible. The Tabacalera location actually works because there’s always room to sprawl out and try something new without feeling watched. People bring all kinds of games, from quick card sets to longer strategy stuff, and newcomers fit in fast. Good hang if you like social games without the competitive edge.

    🎭 Performing Arts in Mexico City This Week

    1Goddesses of Olympus, We Are Women

    📅 Friday, March 13, 7:00 PM — Centro Histórico

    Ciganka’s gypsy-fusion choreography is the first thing that grabs you — the way they thread Balkan-style footwork into a dance piece about Olympus feels surprisingly natural. The show leans into comparing everyday women with Greek goddesses, and the Centro Cultural José Martí in Centro Histórico fits that intimate, slightly punk energy the Martí is known for. It’s the kind of dance performance that feels more like a collective ritual than a polished ballet. Go if you like movement that carries a story without overexplaining it.

    Goddesses of Olympus, We Are Women

    2peach tinted

    📅 Sunday, March 15, 7:00 PM — Condesa

    Peach Tinted rolling into Bajo Circuito with Andru in tow is a fun pairing — that tunnel-space in Condesa always gives indie bands a gritty boost. Their dreamy pop mixes surprisingly well with the venue’s low ceiling and big bass, and Andru usually brings enough energy to warm up the room fast. It’s a straight-up live music night with no theatrics, just tight sets. Great if you like smaller shows where you can actually see the band working through their sound.

    3Déjà Vu Retro Show

    📅 Friday, March 13, 9:00 PM — Other

    A cast of 25 performers running through nearly 100 hits from the 70s to today is a wild promise, and Déjà Vu actually leans all the way in with the multimedia staging. It’s less a play and more a two-hour retro machine that jumps from era to era with costumes, choreography, and those instantly recognizable intros. Royal Pedregal tends to draw a crowd that really commits to singing along, which makes the whole thing feel like a party disguised as theatre. Go if you love maximalist nostalgia done with zero shame.

    🏛️ Culture in Mexico City This Week

    1Sabor Es Polanco

    📅 Saturday, March 14, 1:00 PM — Molino Del Rey

    The twelfth edition of Sabor Es Polanco brings more than 75 restaurants into Campo Marte, which is the real flex—walking from a mezcal stand straight into a seafood tasting without crossing half the city. The premium area gets crowded but the master classes and tasting zones keep things moving. Molino del Rey regulars know this is basically the city’s food Olympics. Go hungry and pace yourself.

    2VIP Cabins

    📅 Thursday, March 12, 7:00 AM — Molino Del Rey

    The 85‑meter wheel at Aztlán hits a sweet spot at sunset, but the VIP cabin makes it smoother—food, drinks, and no shuffling in line. Chapultepec looks surprisingly calm from up there, and the 40‑minute ride gives you enough time to actually enjoy it instead of rushing. Molino del Rey families, couples, everyone mixes in. Nice if you want a quiet moment in the middle of the city without overthinking the plan.

    ✨ Experiences in Mexico City This Week

    1Hot Air Balloon Ride with Optional Tour to Teotihuacán and the Basilica of Guadalupe

    📅 Tuesday, March 10, 10:50 PM — Cuauhtemoc

    That sunrise balloon lift over Teotihuacán hits different when you’re floating right above the Pyramid of the Sun with a glass of bubbly waiting on the ground. The crew keeps it moving smoothly, and the optional guided tour after—obsidian workshop, tequila tasting, Basilica stop—turns it into a full-on day trip. It’s an early wake-up from Cuauhtémoc, but the quiet of the valley at 5 a.m. is its own reward. Go if you like big views and don’t mind being offline for a few hours.

    Hot Air Balloon Ride with Optional Tour to Teotihuacán and the Basilica of Guadalupe

    2Pixel Universe - The New Era of Digital Fun

    📅 Monday, March 09, 6:00 AM — Nápoles

    The six-room Pixel Mission is the highlight here—basically a live video game where the Glitch keeps jumping at you and you rack up Pixel Coins to blow at the arcade later. Pixel Universe in Nápoles is one of those places that feels built for kids but somehow fully hooks adults, especially with the date-night combo floating around. The projection effects are surprisingly polished. Good if you want something playful that doesn’t require being “gamer” at all.

    3Teotihuacán Sunrise Tour: Guided Visit to the Pyramids with Optional Lunch

    📅 Sunday, March 15, 12:20 AM — Centro Histórico

    An 8-hour guided walk through Teotihuacán hits differently when you’re there early enough to catch the morning light on the Avenue of the Dead. Amigo Tours keeps it tight with a bilingual guide and a tequila tasting before lunch, which helps break up the history overload. Leaving from Centro Histórico makes the logistics easy. It’s a classic day trip for anyone who actually wants context instead of just photos.

    4Sensory Feast: A Sensory and Immersive Gastronomic Experience Inspired by Alice in Wonderland

    📅 Friday, March 13, 6:30 PM — Lomas De Santa Fe

    The projection tech at Sensory Feast is honestly the draw—watching your table turn into the rabbit hole or the Queen’s court while the kitchen sends out a three-course riff on Alice in Wonderland is pretty fun. Hilton Santa Fe leans into the theatrical side of a food experience, and it works better than expected. It skews more date-night than foodie pilgrimage. Go if you like dinner with a bit of spectacle thrown in.

    5Visit Xochimilco

    📅 Monday, March 09 — Xochimilco

    A 150‑minute trajinera ride through the Xochimilco canals goes down easy when there’s unlimited drinks and a guide telling old-school legends between stops. The pause at the chinampa for tacos and pulque gives it that local edge, and the silly games—mazapán challenge, Lotería, a quick mezcal workshop—keep the energy up. Starting at Las Flores Nativitas, it’s one of the more social versions of the classic boat tour. Great if you’re going with a group that likes to chat and wander.

    💡 Tech & Business in Mexico City This Week

    1In-Person Training ChamSys MagicQ, Chauvet Mexico, 2026.

    📅 Tuesday, March 10 — Other

    A full training day on ChamSys MagicQ at the Chauvet Mexico space is a solid excuse to dive deep into lighting programming without distractions. MagicQ has a learning curve, but hands-on sessions like this usually help everything click, especially when you’re surrounded by people who actually gig. It’s not a networking fest — more a focused tech meetup where everyone’s there to level up. Great for anyone wanting to move from hobbyist to competent operator.
