Get your camera ready and put on your most comfortable sneakers because Paseo de la Reforma will host an exhibition of monumental alebrijes. You’ll see dozens of pieces crafted by artisans from across the country. It’s a free event.
The 2026 Monumental Alebrijes Parade includes an exhibition along Paseo de la Reforma, where you can see all the pieces that participated in the event.
The parade will take place on Saturday, October 17, at 12:00 p.m. sharp. It will start at the Zócalo in Mexico City and end on Paseo de la Reforma, right by the Diana the Huntress Fountain. Afterward, you’ll be able to see all the pieces on that street as part of an exhibition that will last several days.
When will the exhibition of monumental alebrijes take place on Paseo de la Reforma?
The exhibition will begin at 8:00 p.m. on October 17—that is, on the same day as the parade. It will remain on Paseo de la Reforma until November 8, 2026. You can view it 24 hours a day, as it is an outdoor exhibition.
The alebrijes you’ll see are the ones that will participate in the parade. The exhibition will begin near the Diana Cazadora statue. We recommend wearing comfortable shoes because the route is quite long and you’ll be walking for a while.
Best of all, you’ll be able to take photos with the alebrijes on display. The event has become a true tradition in Mexico City, and in 2026 it will celebrate its 18th edition.
