MUTEK MX Guide to Mexico City

Exhibitions, architecture, parties, a rich history and a diverse and avant-garde local scene: in Mexico City, art and creativity thrive 24/7. But next October will be simply epic, as it gathers a full agenda of diverse activities of international scope, including the 20th anniversary of MUTEK MX, the third and last of the three anniversaries that the international MUTEK network celebrates in 2024: the past spring marked Barcelona’s 10th year, while in August MUTEK Montreal will host its 25th Edition.

“The metropolis has an allure all of its own (...), its many galleries and markets help facilitate one of the strongest creative scenes in Latin America.”

National Geographic

“The city whose alchemy of young artists, new restaurants and up-and-coming neighborhoods with flourishing creative energy is just heating up.

L’Officiel

With a calendar full of events that also includes festivals such as Mexico’s Design Week and VR Fest 7th edition, the city's creative energy will be perfect for inspiration, networking opportunities and to simply surrender to astounding art and music from all over the globe.
