Feria Nacional de Tijuana 2025: Key Dates and Venue Details
The Palenque de Tijuana is not a standalone event; it is the main spectacle held within the annual Feria Nacional de Tijuana, a massive cultural and entertainment fair. Knowing the fair's schedule is the first step to planning your concert experience.
- Event Name: Feria Nacional de Tijuana 2025 (including the Palenque)
- Confirmed Dates: The fair is scheduled to run from August 28 to September 28, 2025. This month-long timeframe means the Palenque will host performances primarily on weekends and select weeknights throughout this period.
- Venue: The Palenque is located within the grounds of the Feria Nacional de Tijuana, typically held at the Parque Morelos area. This venue provides a traditional, intimate "palenque" (rooster-fighting ring turned concert arena) setting, offering a unique, 360-degree view of the artists that is unlike any large stadium concert.
- Event Type: The Palenque focuses heavily on the biggest names in Regional Mexican Music, including genres like Banda Sinaloense, Norteño, Corridos, and Mariachi. The fair itself also features the "Teatro del Pueblo" (People's Theater), which offers a separate lineup of artists, often included with the general fair admission ticket.
The Palenque experience is known for its proximity to the performers. Unlike massive stadiums, the circular nature of the venue ensures that every seat is close to the action, creating an unforgettable and highly personal concert atmosphere for fans of legendary artists and emerging talents alike.
