Springtime Events in Caborca
|
Springtime in Caborca's desert environment is arguably among the
most comfortable weather climates in the world. With average
temperatures in the 70's, the dry and mild climate is perfect for
exploring, seeing local events, or just taking a walk.

Following are some events celebrated in Caborca every Spring:
National Health Week Kindergarten Students Parade
Held annually in February, this parade features all of Caborca's
kindergarten students dressed up as a medical professional or some
other health-related item, such as a fruit or vegetable. In addition to
recognizing Mexico's National Health Week, the parade is also to help
the students prepare for upcoming vaccinations. It is a very, very cute
way to observe the very important topic of children's health.
Springtime Parade - Birth Date of Benito Juárez
Typically held on March 21st (which also recognizes the birthday of
Mexican President Benito Juárez), the kindergarteners once again
take to the streets, this time dressed in a springtime theme like a
flower or a frog.
Abril 6th (Seis de Abril)
This is the biggest event on Caborca's annual calendar, to
commemorate the town's defense against American filibusterers in
the mid-1800's.
May 1st - Primero de Mayo is a national workers' holiday, similar to
Labor Day in the U.S.
May 5th - A minor holiday in Mexico (it's probably more recognized in
the U.S.), Cinco de Mayo commemorates the victory of Mexican forces
against the French in the battle of Puebla.
May 10th - Mother's Day (Día de la Madre), a major Mexican holiday.
May 15th - Teachers' Day (Día del Maestro), honoring Mexico's
educators.
