Mitote Folklórico and international folklore festival of Acuña
The Mitote Folklórico and International Folklore Festival of Acuña (FIFA) is a cultural event of great impact in northern Mexico, with 12 years of uninterrupted history. It emerged in 2013 with the firm conviction of educating young people committed to their community through folkloric dance, fostering values such as identity, solidarity, empathy, discipline, and love for their country. A Unique Festival in the World: Since 2022, the festival has been declared a binational event, taking place simultaneously in Ciudad Acuña, Coahuila (Mexico) and Del Rio, Texas (USA), with the support of the Mexican Consulate in Del Rio, thus becoming the only folklore festival in the world celebrated in two countries at the same time, using dance as a bond of brotherhood, peace, and unity between nations.
