Updated June 29, 8 am
The Puerto Vallarta Daily Schedule of Events is continually updated. Last-minute additions and corrections are frequent. Click on most listings for more information about individual events.
It is officially “low” season now and Puerto Vallarta becomes a town again and not just a destination.
The exception to Vallarta being a quiet town is this week when National and local elections are being held. Expect parades and Malecon performances all week in support of the candidates. The activity level in town will be high.
