On February 17, Ajijic didn’t just host a Carnival parade—it became Carnival: a town-wide burst of laughter, music, and color where neighbors, families, and visitors filled the cobblestone streets with the kind of joy you can feel in your chest.

In Ajijic, this isn’t just a party—it’s a shared moment of pride and pure, contagious happiness.
