4. Set the best route to your event

Whether we admit it or not, Mexico City has severe traffic issues, which become chaotic when there’s an event ongoing. A massive quantity of people moving from one side of the city to the other makes public transportation become overcrowded.

In the end, you would only have to arrive at the entrance and enjoy the show.

5. Focus on the experience

Undeniably, a weekend getaway to Mexico City is simply indescribable. You must live it yourself to find out how it is. Thus, we recommend you to seize the moment. Create the most beautiful memories, go sightseen as much as you can, and scream your happiness out loud.
