Overview
- The Expo Feria Apatzingán 2025 is scheduled for October 17–31 with a roster that includes Gloria Trevi, Banda El Recodo, Los Recoditos, Pancho Barraza, Los Ángeles Negros and Los Caminantes.
- Municipal leaders project more than 250,000 visitors and an economic impact of at least 350 million pesos, with about 40% of costs covered by three sponsors.
- Officials say fairgrounds and access routes have been upgraded to improve circulation and draw attendees from other Mexican states and returning visitors from the United States.
- Contracts ask artists, especially those who perform corridos, to avoid pieces that could be interpreted as praising crime and to pre-clear their song lists with authorities.
- The measures follow a prior controversy involving Los Hermanos Jiménez, and local officials acknowledge differing views on what constitutes apología del delito.
