This year Valparaiso will receive a Mexican delegation from Veracruz. North and South Latin American culture will fuse during this anual celebration of performance and arts. Here is a small selection of highlights.

- Los Voladores de Papantal: (the flying people of Papantal) Veracruz ritual related to fertility.

- Titae y los Músicos del Cinzano (Titae and the Cinzano musicians): the only thing missing would be the wine, chorrillana and cigarettes

- Banda Conmoción: Band of 19 musicians who play gipsy music, such as music by Emir Kusturica

- Chico Trujillo: electronic cumbia with content, too good to be true

- “Pies pa’ Volar”: Dance inspired by the life of Frida Kahlo with music by Lila Down. Beautiful

- La Flor de Orquesta: Fifties music and the good thing is they are located on a smaller stage, with less people on Plaza Sotomayor.

- Active people can participate in the patrimonial cycling tour on Saturday and Sunday.
