International Guitar Fair

Feria Internacional de la Guitarra
Paracho

For almost 50 years during the first week of August, this guitar fair has promoted Paracho’s artistic and cultural treasures. It is a chance to learn about the local craft and a great time to take something home with you. Along with the festival are other cultural activities such as the National Contest of Guitarists and Luthiers (Concurso Nacional de Constructores e Intérpretes de Guitarra) and the National Contest of Traditional Toys (Concurso Nacional del Juguete Popular). In the former, guitarists and guitar makers compete, and the latter is a contest of folk toys. Musicians from Mexico and beyond take part in the fair.
