Carnival 2020 in Mazatlan
Mazatlán Carnival is said to be the third biggest carnival in the world with over a million people celebrating in the city for the six days before Lent. Here is everything you need to know to celebrate carnival in Mazatlán.
Official Dates:
February 20th 2020
February 25th, 2020
What is carnival in Mazatlán?
Mazatlán Carnival or Carnaval de Mazatlán is a pre-Lenten carnival celebration that is now celebrating its 122nd year. It takes place every year in the five days preceding Lent as is the most anticipated event of the year! Mazatlán Carnival claims to be the third largest carnival in the world with well over a million people heading to the city, to celebrate carnival. There is no other carnival in the world that celebrates like Mazatlán who is known for its abundance of brass bands.
Mazatlán Carnival is without a doubt one of the most unique and vibrant celebrations in all of Mexico and absolutely worth experiencing. Despite the fact that Mazatlán is a popular international tourist destination almost the majority of the people attending carnival are from Mexico. The locals say that carnival is part of their DNA and that carnival runs through their veins. Work and school come to a halt during carnival so that everyone can be swept up in the carnival spirit.
When is the Mazatlán Carnival?
The dates for 2020 Carnival in Mazatlan begins on Thursday 20th February and finishes on Shrove Tuesday which is the 25th February, 2020. However, you can feel the party atmosphere kicking in a few days before the official start of carnival.
Where is Mazatlán Carnival?
Mazatlán is located in the Mexican state of Sinaloa and situated on the Pacific Coast and runs parallel to the southern tip of Baja California peninsula. Mazatlán is a popular tourist destination for North Americans because of its warm climate, gorgeous sandy beaches and historical colonial towns. All of this makes celebrating carnival in Mazatlán an excellent choice!
How do they celebrate Mazatlán Carnival?
This merry Mexican carnival is celebrated in the five days prior to Ash Wednesday. One of its main features is the abundance of brass bands as well as the sounds of Tambora music that fill the air, and can be heard day and night all over the city for the duration of carnival.
In addition to the excess of traditional live music, Mazatlán Carnival has colourful parades, fireworks, awards for poetry, art and literature, carnival royalty coronations. The party atmosphere fills overtakes the whole city, and everyone gives in to enjoying the sensation of excess. All the streets of Mazatlán are transformed into a sea of people drinking, socialising and dancing the night away to all the different bands that line the Malecon.
Mazatlán Carnival is a holiday period for the local people which means that the carnival celebrations go all day and night. Because it is an intergenerational family celebration you will see grandparents out with children, teenagers and adults of all ages.
A few weeks before Mazatlán Carnival officially starts about 10 giant multi-coloured carnival figurines called Monigotes are paraded along the Maelcon and are based on the current years theme.
The following dates at this stage are only guidelines and will be updated when the official dates are released, but the carnival generally follows these events at the same time.

Mazatlán Carnival Tips
- Because Mazatlán Carnival is a party for all ages, enjoy yourself and have a good time but be aware that this carnival is different to a lot of others where it’s just lots of wild partying and drinking. If that’s the carnival experience you are after maybe try another carnival. Mazatlán Carnival is about being part of a tradition that is shared amongst generations.
- You must book your accommodation well in advance! Because accommodation gets booked up months in advance!
- We recommend you dress casual, wear good shoes, avoid jewellery and at night bring a jacket or jumper because it may be chilly.
- Leave your valuables at the hotel and don’t bring a lot of cash with you because there are pickpockets and its very crowded so it’s easy to pickpocket.
- When attending the parades you can buy little wooden fold up chairs for a few dollars from vendors. Other options to watch the parade are on some hotel balconies.
- Expect huge crowds and loud music, if this doesn’t seem like your thing, then maybe this isn’t the carnival for you.
- To see the fireworks we recommend arriving early in Olas Altas around 5-6pm and find a seat on the Malecon You will have to take turns with friends to go to bathroom or get drinks to maintain your prime seating. You can also secure some seats on one of the many party boats that head out into the bay to watch the fireworks. Plenty of hotels offer reservations to view the fireworks. But also you could book accommodation that offers a view.

Chilaquiles Rojos
Where have these red chilaquiles been all my life?
Chilaquiles (pronounced chee-luh-key-lays) are a traditional Mexican breakfast made with tortilla chips simmered in sauce. Typically, they’re made with green salsa (in Spanish, salsa verde, which yields chilaquiles verdes) or red enchilada sauce (chilaquiles rojos).
Thats fantastic how the chips soak up some of the sauce and become a little tender. Fresh toppings, including cilantro, radish or onion, crumbled cheese and oftentimes, fried eggs, make this chip-based dish more of a complete meal.
Chilaquiles are a fun weekend breakfast or brunch. They’re also a comforting and quick
breakfast-f0r-dinner option, and a great way to use up a bag of leftover tortilla chips. Ready to learn how to make them?
Ingredients
Chilaquiles Rojos Ingredients
Let’s break this chilaquiles recipe down into three parts:
1) Enchilada sauce
Sauce forms the backbone of flavor in chilaquiles, so you need to use a great one. The red sauce is full of rich, long-simmered, chili-pepper flavor, yet it’s so easy to make in a big skillet before adding the chips.
If you want to use your own red enchilada sauce recipe, or a store-bought option you’ll need 2 cups.
2) Tortilla chips
Authentic Mexican chilaquiles are made with fried tortilla chips. You can prepare homemade chilaquiles with freshly baked tortilla chips and store-bought tortilla chips—more details on those options below.
3) Toppings!
Tangy crumbled cheese, crisp radish, fresh cilantro, and creamy avocado all offer welcome contrast to saucy chips. If you’re topping your chilaquiles with eggs, you’ll want to either prepare them in advance of making the sauce, or while your sauce is simmering (if you are great at multitasking).
How to Make Chilaquiles
Chilaquiles are easy to make—if you’re prepared! Chilaquiles come together quickly, so prep all of your ingredients before you get started. That includes garnishes, too.
Once your ingredients are ready to go, we will:
1) Make the enchilada sauce in a large skillet.
We’ll use the same skillet throughout the recipe. Once the enchilada sauce is good to go, we’ll reduce the heat to the lowest possible setting, then…
2) Add the tortilla chips and stir, stir, stir.
It might seem like your tortilla chips will never be fully coated, but they will eventually. If your chips haven’t softened up during the stirring process, cover up the skillet for a few minutes.
3) Add toppings and serve immediately.
Chilaquiles aren’t complete without a generous amount of fresh toppings. The chips can get soggy over time, so serve your chilaquiles right away.
Homemade Tortilla Chips vs. Store-Bought Tortilla Chips
Many chilaquiles recipes suggest frying your own tortilla chips.
Baked tortilla chips work great in chilaquiles, so that’s another great option. As a bonus, baked chips don’t require nearly as much oil. You’ll find instructions in the section below.
If you first experiment with chilaquiles, you can be disappointed by the results with store-bought tortilla chips. Some brands taste oily or stale, and they impart those flavors to the chilaquiles.
However, there is the brand of tortilla chips that actually are great in chilaquiles—Late July’s chia and quinoa variety. You’ll see those chips used in this post.
How to Bake Crispy Tortilla Chips
You’ll need 16 thin corn tortillas, 2 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil and 1/2 teaspoon salt. Here’s how:
- Preheat the oven to 400 degrees Fahrenheit with racks in the upper-middle and lower-middle positions. Line two large baking sheets with parchment paper for easy clean-up. Brush both sides of each tortilla lightly with oil. Stack the tortillas, 4 at once, and slice them into 8 wedges. Repeat with remaining tortillas. Divide the wedges between the two baking sheets and arrange them evenly across the pans (it’s ok if the chips overlap; they’ll shrink significantly as they bake). Sprinkle half the salt over one pan and half over the other.
- Bake, swapping the pans on their racks every 5 minutes, until the chips are curling up at the edges and some are starting to turn golden on the edges. This could take as little as 10 minutes. Keep an eye on the top rack especially, as those tend to finish baking first. Once you see the chips on the top rack turn golden on the edges, remove that pan and move the pan on the lower rack up to the top. Bake until those chips start turning golden on the edges, then remove from the oven.
To Add Eggs, or Not to Add Eggs
That is the question. In Mexico, chilaquiles don’t automatically come with eggs.
In the U.S., chilaquiles are almost always served with fried eggs on top—and they’re delicious.
You can add eggs to your chilaquiles because they make them more substantial.
Scrambled or poached eggs are great, too.
Want a hearty plant-based option? Serve your chilaquiles with a side of refried beans. These chilaquiles are easily made dairy free/vegan, by the way—see the recipe notes for details.
