El Día de los Muertos is one of the most colorful ones occurring about Nov 3, sort of. dates bend a bit in Mexico. it is a big deal in many cities, and a little deal in others, but a deal everywhere.
Currently they are ramping up for feliz navidad or Christmas. that is of course, like all religious holidays a big deal everywhere and there are celebrations just before , until the first week or so then they have the tres Reyes visit in the first week of January. 

There are celebrations for mothers days, more than fathers days. In December there is a race with statues of Mary for Día de la Virgen de Guadalupe). some run some ride bikes and they travel from city to city in this area ending in the primary city December 12th. Independence day is celebrated but not cinco de Mayo so much, dia de indepencia is much more important to them.its  15 September.

There are many area specific little festivals and celebrations.
In this city the el central is sort of a moving art show and some times electric show. In other words all you have to do is look around.
