Overview

• Mayor Alfonso Martínez led a municipal review to finalize preparations for the events honoring José María Morelos.
• The program includes a free public dance on Sept. 29 in front of the Cathedral and, on Sept. 30, a Bando Solemne, a civic act for the 260th anniversary of Morelos’ birth, and a civic‑military parade.
• Security filters will be installed at entrances to the Sept. 29 event, and Avenida Madero will be closed between Abasolo and Morelos to set up the stage.
• Martínez said the celebrations will proceed in peace, citing coordination similar to that used for Sept. 15–16 ceremonies.
• Officials reviewed tourism, protocol, public services, security, and civil protection measures to manage the large gatherings in the city center.
