    Congratulations to Yucatan Living! This monthly events calendar (badly needed) is another great addition to your blog. Thanks.

  2. "Gail L. Weaver" said on March 10th, 2009:

    Hello: Will an address and map to the AANY art show be included in future announcements? We ae new to Merida and do not know our way around. Gail

    Can you give me the basic information about this event? Thanks, Robert

  6. "Working Gringos" said on March 19th, 2009:

    Robert, if you click on the title of the event in question, you will be taken to a separate screen which lists everything we know about any particular event. Hope that helps!

    Events calendar would be great — but only M-F/L-V) appears in the frame. I am on my old G3 iBook until the MacBook Pro comes back from DF but I don’t think that will help.

    On the other hand I could be doing something wrong, overlooking something.

    You fixed it, great work!

    Hi:

    How can we assist with this event?

    Thanks

  11. "Jo" said on May 31st, 2009:

    Help! I’m trying to look at the June 2009 calendar, but it doesn’t seem to match my 2009 calendar. According to my 2009 calendar, tomorrow, Monday, is June 1st. But looking at the calendar here it shows Tuesday as the 1st of June??????????

  12. "Working Gringos" said on May 31st, 2009:

    The calendar shows Tuesday as June 2… it’s just that there are no events reported on June 1.

    Any idea on the dates in July for the Municipal Handicraft Fair in Dzitya?

  15. "Working Gringos" said on June 30th, 2009:

    July 24 to August 2 are the dates we’ve been given for the Dzitya Handicraft Fair, but we’ve been told that the actual schedule of events won’t be available until mid-July

  16. "Betty" said on July 16th, 2009:

    Are there more baseball games in July? It looks like the play Cancun July 21-23 from the Leones calendar but maybe I’m not reading it correctly!

  17. "AJS" said on July 29th, 2009:

    Im planning to visit Merida in Sept 09, would you please confirm the following event
    NUESTRA BELLEZA MEXICO FINAL 2009 on Sept 19th in Salon Chichen Itza in Siglo XXI
    Thank you,

  19. "BOB BROWN" said on August 21st, 2009:

    Would like to know, where & when there is dancing{North American type} around
    a large park in the center of the city- With side streets also closed off to traffic with
    small bands are playing and people sitting and having a drink and listening and
    relaxing to the music – This would be roughly between Dec 15th to Jan 15th 2009/10 . Will some one send me some information to the above internet address

    Thank you very much – Bob Brown

  20. "Working Gringos" said on August 22nd, 2009:

    Bob, what you describe sounds like what happens on most Saturday nights around the Plaza Grande in the center of town. The people sitting and drinking are on Calle 60 and 62 north of the center, and the dancing is more like salsa and other Latin dances… but other than that, that seems to be what you are looking for!

  22. "geoffrey ellis aronson" said on September 22nd, 2009:

    As I was the poster of the boxing event in Valladolid, let me add a few items about the event. Actually double checking with the posters for the event, it should read that the best fight will be 10 rounds and features a prizefighter who is ranked 15th in the world for his class, so it should be quite a fight. I wish the rest of us could say we are the 15th at anything.
    As to where the auditorium is, that beats me. I have only lived here in Valladolid since the 1st of September, so I am not particularly familiar with this auditorium. But the posters are everywhere downtown celebrating the fast approaching bout. Considering that Valladolid is 1/10th the size of Merida and there will be nothing else of note in town, be sure to get here early and ask around.

  23. "BOB BROWN" said on September 22nd, 2009:

    Hi ‘Working Gringos’- Thank you for answering my message on Aug22. You mentioned the location I was looking for Plaza Grande.

    How is your crime rate there in Merida? General petty theft, nothing too wild? I’m only a little guy, but feel I can handle myself… it’s not a worry, right ? None of that drug violence going on in the city?

    I ask these questions because I’m trying to choose between Merida or Montevideo, Uruguay to settle down for a few years and I love my dancing!!

    Thanks again

  24. "Ann" said on October 1st, 2009:

    Does anyone know on what date altars will be created to celebrate the Yucatan version on Dia de los Muertos in Merida? Thanks.

  25. "Working Gringos" said on October 5th, 2009:

    The altars will be in the Plaza Grande (the town’s main square) during the day of November 1. They are set up early in the morning and usually taken down by 4 or 5 in the afternoon.

  26. "Trudy Woodcock" said on October 5th, 2009:

    Traditional Mayan celebration of Hanal Pixán, Day of the Dead in Yuctán, October 29 and 30 at the Maya Cosmic Institute, Mérida. Check details at http://www.casakin.org or contact Trudy Woodcock at trudy@iluminado-tours.com.

  27. "susiej" said on October 10th, 2009:

    Hello everyone,
    My neighbors and I live in Playa del Carmen and are planning a trip by bus to Merida on Dec 26 for two nights. I would love some help with ideas for seeing this beautiful city and traditional/local places to eat. I see the zocalo is not far from our hotel. I would love to shop for local goods and see some of the cultural aspects. We are staying at the hotel Dolores Alba.
    Thank you,
    Sue

  28. "Sharon" said on October 12th, 2009:

    For the Brazos event on Oct. 29, please note that Chef Paul Lindemuth from Chicago and his staff are donating and serving delicious hors d’ oeuvres which are included in the ticket price for this event. He has a home in Santiago, is a private chef and cooking instructor in the Chicago area and is interested in expanding his business “The Art of Food” to include Merida. I have been to events he has hosted in Merida and I can say those who attend the Brazos event will be in for a great taste experience not presently found in Merida.
    I hope many of you readers will encourage your friends to join you in attending this worthwhile event.
    Thanks Sharon

  34. "Working Gringos" said on December 1st, 2009:

    We just noticed we forgot to answer Mr. Brown who asked about crime. Crime? What crime? There is VERY little crime here in the Yucatan and Merida. We walk the streets anytime of day or night in the centro without worry.

    Hope that helps with your decision.

  35. "sleeplessnoel" said on December 3rd, 2009:

    When we were in Merida last New Year’s Eve, we stopped by a restaurant/bar right along Calle 60 (across from Hildalgo Park) that had tables and chairs set up outside. It was very crowded, but we were lucky enough to find 2 seats. There were bands and dancing going on right there. We would like to go to the same place this year, but since we will have guests with us this year, I am afraid that we may not be able to get seating. Should we or is it recommended that we make some sort of reservations, say for dinner? Can any one give me the name of the restaurant/bar and any contact info that I may need?
    Thanks!

  36. "Working Gringos" said on December 3rd, 2009:

    The restaurant would probably be Bella Epoca. You don’t need reservations… we’re pretty sure they wouldn’t take them. Just show up early!

    Stay tuned for our new restaurant listing… it will have all the info you need on Bella Epoca and many other restaurants!

    According to the cultural events list given out at the Olimpo entrance, the Apocalpse Now film has been cancelled for the 18th. Anyone verify this?

  40. "geoffrey ellis aronson" said on December 15th, 2009:

    Can anyone tell me if the EL CIRUELO is in Spanish or English?

  41. "Patti" said on January 6th, 2010:

    Wonderful calendar
    I visited in November and did not find the Cuban music, that I love, and dancing on Calle 60 at 59. I also do not see this event listed on the January calendar. Is this no longer available? My memory is that when we visited in January 2009 this music was available Thursday, Friday and Saturday evenings.
    Thank you

  42. "Working Gringos" said on January 7th, 2010:

    The city did cut back on some of this when tourism dropped so precipitously last year. We think they have started up again, but we will look into it and put whatever we find on the calendar.

  43. "Patti" said on January 7th, 2010:

    Thank you for the update.
    Do you have a schedule of the parades and other activities for Carnaval next month?

  44. "Working Gringos" said on January 8th, 2010:

    As soon as we do, we’ll get it up there…

  45. "Evelyn" said on January 8th, 2010:

    What is Carnaval & where? We will be there for the month of Feb.

  46. "Patti" said on January 8th, 2010:

    Dear Working Gringos,
    I would like to take an opportunity to thank you for the absoultely wonderful pictures that you continnue to display on your wonderful site. They are a wonderful and accurate display of the area. Thank you very much.

  47. "Patti" said on January 11th, 2010:

    Hi Evelyn,
    Sorry I over looked your question. The Carnaval is to Merida as Mardi Gras is to Rio de Janeiro and New Orleans. I have never seen it in Merida but do understand that it is fantastic. It is a festival of music dancing and of course the wonderful color that is so glorious in Mexico. All I do know at this time is that the first event is on January 30th with the coronation of the king and queen with parades and activities to follow through the 17th of February. I am sure that W G will have the info posted soon.

  48. "Working Gringos" said on January 11th, 2010:

    Carnaval starts on February 10 with the Burning of the Bad Humor and ends on February 17 with the Burning of Juan Carnaval. Check the calendar above for the details of each day during that week. And in this weeks News and Events for more details on buying seats, etc.

    Party on!

    Could someone please tell me what days to avoid Progreso, i.e., the days when the cruise ships are there. Muchas gracias.

  52. "susan p" said on January 23rd, 2010:

    my husband and i will be visiting Merida for the first time next week and hope to connect with folks who are living there and know the area. Is there a monthly, weekly get together we might join?

    Susan in Mmaine

  53. "Michelle H" said on January 29th, 2010:

    I went to the organic produce market at 9:30 on the morning of Friday the 29th of Jan. My husband and I double checked on the address and we were at the right place but couldn’t get a response from anyone and saw nothing to indicate there was a market there. What happened? Is it over already? Are there others somewhere else?
    Michelle

  54. "Working Gringa" said on January 29th, 2010:

    We’re really sorry, Michelle. We’re looking into it…

  55. "Working Gringos" said on January 29th, 2010:

    Here’s what we found out: It will open on Friday 12 February . . . 9am – 1pm! We hope you’ll try again!

  56. "Ramona" said on January 31st, 2010:

    To Cheryl Biery,

    We were told by our friend here in Merida that cruise ship days in Progreso are Mondays and Wednesdays after we had gone once on a Monday and it was awful!
    Good luck!

  57. "Ramona" said on January 31st, 2010:

    hi working gringos,

    when i click on an event, half the time i just get taken to the comments section and not to the info about the event. you may want to check your links.

  58. "Michelle H" said on February 2nd, 2010:

    Thanks so much for checking into the organic market. We have told others who are interested and now can let them know what is happening with it. Thanks again.
    Michelle

  59. "Working Gringa" said on February 3rd, 2010:

    Ramona, thanks for pointing that out. We believe we fixed that problem. If not, let us know!

  60. "Deborah Hamilton" said on February 3rd, 2010:

    Please send any info about best/most fun locations in Merida to watch this year’s Superbowl. Thanks!

  61. "Working Gringos" said on February 5th, 2010:

    The Superbowl will be the center of attention at La Casa de Habanos (formerly Mercer Cigars) from 10 am on this Sunday. We’ve put it in the calendar.

    Ellen:

    I’ve been trying to find a calendar of the market days for the outlying villages and coastal towns. I know you did a hugely comprehensive piece on fairs and fiestas and was wondering if you know of anywhere I can find which day is market day in various towns? Yeah, I know: “Stop, buy a coke and ask the tienda cashier”

  64. "Working Gringos" said on March 23rd, 2010:

    As far as we know, mercados are open every day…

  65. "Joanne" said on April 30th, 2010:

    I was trying to find a cooking school to attend while in Merida for the month of July. I think Los Dos is closed. Any suggestions? I tried your link for Catriona from Puerto Morelos but it would not open. Just looking for a 1 day activity that might include a trip to the best food markets. Thanks. Joanne

  66. "Working Gringos" said on May 1st, 2010:

    We don’t know if what you say is true about Los Dos, but certainly we know that Cat’s school is still open. This link should work:
