International Festival of Lights

The International Festival of Lights (FILUX) is held annually in Mexico City, and now is visiting Mérida for a four-day light show at and around the Plaza Grande and various sites (see map) between the main square and La Cúpula Cultural Center.

FILUX turns the city into a huge museum of light. The Festival works closely with the local artists and ensures that their passage is not ephemeral, but that the city conserves some of the installations and exhibits them permanently.
