Día de Muertos

Just a few miles from Puerto Vallarta, the charming town of Sayulita celebrates Día de Muertos in a deeply moving way. The streets are filled with altars dedicated to deceased loved ones, adorned with marigold flowers and candles that light up the night. This festival, deeply rooted in Mexican culture, invites residents and visitors alike to join in a celebration of life and death, with the waves of the Pacific Ocean serving as the backdrop for this emotional commemoration.

Pilgrimages to the Virgin of Guadalupe

As December approaches, the traditional pilgrimages to the Our Lady of Guadalupe Church become one of the most important religious events in the region. The streets of downtown Puerto Vallarta are filled with devotees paying tribute to Mexico’s patron saint in an atmosphere of spirituality, music, dance and deep devotion.

New Year’s Eve Celebration

Of course, the crowning event of the year is none other than the grand New Year’s Eve celebration on Puerto Vallarta’s Malecón. Spectacular fireworks, live music and a festive atmosphere that envelops all attendees create the perfect recipe for welcoming in the New Year.

“In a meeting that we had with the magazine’s founder, he told us about his dream of making a quality and luxury publication because he was convinced that Puerto Vallarta needed that. For that reason, we have advertised in Vallarta Lifestyles since its beginnings. These days, our brand is very well positioned thanks to the strategic distribution of the magazine, as it helps us reach more potential customers which is a great benefit for us.”

“There are lots of reasons why we have advertised in Vallarta Lifestyles for several years. One of them is that they know pretty well their target, because they know who are their readers and they adapt as much as possible the content and material that is offered. For these reasons they have a growing number of readers which is very important for us. Another reason is that many people —including us— think that the magazine has been as a serious publication since its beginnings. Historically, Vallarta Lifestyles has known how to capture the audience and has done it pretty well."

“Vallarta Lifestyles, from its inception has been a quality reference. In some way, it has managed to consolidate the destination because all our restaurants where there and we communicate as an exchange platform. The benefit, besides advertisement and recommendation, is that this publication is a solid copy of Puerto Vallarta’s evolution. If you pick up an old issue, immediately you’ll recall precious memories.”
