"Celebrating Oaxaca's Cultural Diversity Held every year during the last two weeks of July, the Guelaguetza festival highlights Oaxaca 's diversity. Representatives of the different ethnic groups of Oaxaca state perform their traditional folk dances and throw items to the crowd that are representative of their region - bread, fruit, baskets... The main presentation takes place in the auditorium on the hill overlooking Oaxaca city, but there are events going on in town and in the surrounding villages as well. You can buy tickets through Ticketmaster Mexico , or get free access to the back section of the auditorium (but line up several hours in advance)."

I walked up there via a dedicated stairway to a scenic viewpoint. I didn't attend a performance, but the building itself is interesting with a its white fabric dome up on a hill overlooking Oaxaca. Unfortunately there is super loud noise coming out of the sound system, I could hardly hear myself think! It was like that a year ago too, loud droning noise and it was not due to a performance.

The venue's acoustics embrace performances, allowing the echoes of traditional music and dance to resonate with a magical quality. Auditorio Guelaguetza is a cultural haven, a space where the essence of Oaxaca is not just observed but felt, making every visit an unforgettable experience.

For Walker's, this is a great destination was views all over the city and an amazing open air auditorium that you can check out while there. Take the shady walking arcade that leaves, from a street West of the cathedral, to see some amazing gardens and very nice Oaxaca houses.

A whole mess, not good signaling as to where to go by sections. Very long lines to get in. No taxis available when concert finished. Only good thing was the concert itself.

The stage being round really helps the view. On the other hand, the lighting and other machines block the view. The sound is never good for the Guelaguetza, in particular, the mic.

As the name is, everyone goes to this place for Guelaguetza in July. It's a well done design but when it's rain, you wanna avoid sitting close to outside.

Rather disorganized/ inefficient venue. They won't let you bring in water or umbrellas.

A beautiful spot with good views of the city, but be careful hiking around there alone. Numerous muggings occur in the area, and it is under patrolled by police. A person staying in the B&B I'm in was mugged at knife point by 2 people in id day, taking his watch, call phone and the little cash he was carrying.
