The next Tianguis II


Puerto Vallarta and the Riviera Nayarit will host the next Tianguis tourism trade show, to be followed by Puebla and Quintana Roo (Cancun and the Riviera Maya). Vallarta, in Jalisco, and the neighboring Riviera in Nayarit are neighbors separated by a river and, if you want to get technical, they lie in adjoining time zones. No dates were announced. The event over the past 36 years has been held in March, April, May and June. Vallarta and its neighbor won by offering nearly 50,000 square feet of exhibition space free of charge, 50 percent discounts at hotels before, after and during the event and more. This will be the first time the trade show has not been held in Acapulco.
