Mexico City The main plaza of Mexico City is commonly known as the Zócalo (Constitution Square.) This emblematic place became the center of the world so to speak, as nearly ninety diplomatic representations, including the Mexican Hosts, were present for the 7th edition of the Fair of the Friend Cultures. From May 15-31, this historical scenario displayed the cultural traditions of many countries; amongst these were Argentina, Cameroon, Germany, South Korea, Japan, Honduras, Uruguay, Nigeria, Ireland, Pakistan, Russia, and India. Last year’s event set an attendance record as it exceeded a count of 2.3 million visitors! This annual event is an ideal option to include in your agenda for your next program.

Puerto Vallarta The Festival Gourmet International Vallarta, the annual food and wine event that has been tempting the most demanding bon-vivant residents of the bay of Banderas and visitors from all over the world for years, returns to Puerto Vallarta every November. Throughout the 10 day event, selected restaurants host special chef's tables and winemaker dinners for a limited number of guests. This festival is memorable for its magnificent gourmet menus paired with excellent wines. The best part of this 10-day event is that each participating restaurant hosts a guest master chef to create a festival all of its own - and that means you'll have a multitude of unique opportunities to savor inspired world-class menus! Of course, Puerto Vallarta & Riviera Nayarit want you to attend – so, how about creating your own gourmet festival? Contact IVIDMC² to arrange a private cooking class with expert chefs at extraordinary locations! Just as the great Parisian Chef Gusteau used to say: “Anyone can cook!”
