What’s Happening in Mexico City? May Edition
May in Mexico City is a vibrant and lively month, marked by the transition from the end of spring to the beginning of summer. During this month, the city enjoys predominantly warm weather, although temperatures are not as high as in the hottest summer months. Mornings tend to be cool and afternoons warm, with average temperatures ranging between 12 and 26 degrees Celsius (54 and 79 degrees Fahrenheit).
Rain begins to appear more frequently in May, setting the stage for the rainy season that intensifies in the following months. These rains are usually short-lived, occurring late in the afternoon or at night, refreshing the environment and clearing the atmosphere of the metropolis.
Moreover, May is an ideal time to enjoy local cuisine. Markets are filled with fresh fruits and vegetables, such as mangoes, avocados, and tomatoes, which are the basis for many Mexican dishes. Restaurants and taquerias take advantage of these fresh ingredients to delight both locals and visitors with their culinary creations.
Here are our favorite events happening in May you can’t miss!
