Hundreds of revelers from all walks of life marched, danced and otherwise promenaded three-kilometers in a wonderful menagerie of energy, song and whirling colors on Tuesday night. The Annual CarnavalPV Parade was a true celebration of life, energy and joy, providing an outlet of entertainment for residents and putting on an unforgettable show for visiting tourists. More than 35,000 spectators lined the picturesque route to enjoy the arsenal of glitter, feathers, paper mache, sequins, music and pageantry.

Paco’s Ranch a popular bar in the Emiliano Zapata neighborhood, captured top honors and the $5,000 peso cash prize for the most creative entry among the 60 parade entries that took part in the annual outing. Linda’s Nails and Casa Karma Boutique Resort also received ‘honorable mention’ for their colorful floats.

Next year’s parade is slated for Tuesday, February 28, 2017. In addition to the parade, 2017 activities will feature a pet parade, movie screenings, an art show, jazz and beer festival, and activities for kids. The events official website atwww.carnavalPV.com will be updated in the days ahead with photos, 2016 video and a list of those who participated on Tuesday.

Event organizers, Gary Green and Tim Longpre, wish to thank the volunteers, participants, spectators, Puerto Vallarta Tourism Department, Police, Transit Police and the Fire Department for their support.

“We started to advertise in Vallarta Lifestyles because since its beginnings and to date it keeps using modern technological equipment to produce it and it is possible to notice that in the quality of the magazine, which offers interesting topics about the life of our destination through its articles and interviews to well known personalities. Actually, I keep a collection in my personal library.”

“Vallarta Lifestyles speaks for itself, it’s a good quality publication with great image, that’s why we have advertised since we started our business. Without any doubt, it is the most read magazine. Its articles and advertising are target to the audience we’re looking for. Vallarta Lifestyles has grown the same way Puerto Vallarta has.”

“Vallarta Lifestyles has readers from Punta de Mita to Mismaloya and beyond, so announcing my business, means the positioning and recognition of my agency throughout the region. The contents of the magazine are very interesting, because they provide relevant information about activities in the destination. I am pleased to see it at hotels, restaurants and galleries, but what excites me the most is to see people with their issue in hand. That is really relevant for us.”
