Parties, Parties and more Parties!
Celebrating Christmas is something that Mexicans are very good at, because practically every December (from December 12 to January 6) is a party that doesn’t stop.

Therefore, traveling to Los Cabos on these dates is a sure way to be part of the colorful celebrations and to learn much more about all the traditions that have nothing to do with the reindeer that accompany that bearded man dressed in red.
The festivities in this destination begin on December 12 with the celebration of the day of the Virgin of Guadalupe, and extend for the rest of the month until January 6 known as Three Kings Day.
All these days of partying, dancing, celebrating, eating and singing are known by the locals as “Maratón Guadalupe-Reyes”, something you certainly won’t want to miss!
However, the most important for everyone is the birth of Baby Jesus, which is celebrated on December 24th at midnight.
Most Mexican families usually go the church at that time to celebrate their birth, thus preparing for the tradition that takes place the next day, the famous “reheating” of the leftovers from the previous day’s festivity.
In most Cabos hotels, buffets usually prepare traditional Christmas meals so you can have the full experience of a Christmas away from home.
