Acapulco Events and Festivals

(Acapulco, Guerrero, Mexico)



Photo showing the famous Quebrada cliff divingVisitors looking for things to do in Acapulco will not be disappointed once they discover the city's extensive calendar of local festivals and events. Each year, highlights include the Holy Week (Semana Santa) celebrations in April, the Acapulco Music Festival (Festivales de Acapulco) in May, and the spectacular cliff diving shows (La Quebrada), where brave and foolhardy locals jump from the top of high cliffs, diving some 30 metres / 100 feet into the waters below. This event is not to be missed and inexpensive to watch.

For the latest events listings and festivals information, look out for the local newspapers, such as both the Sol de Acapulco and also the Acapulco Novedades. Both of these newspapers also feature film times for the main cinemas fronting La Costera.
