Get ready for the new school year without breaking the bank! If you live in northern Mexico City, we have great news for you: everything is set for the 2026 Back-to-School Event in Azcapotzalco, an event packed with free activities and services.
From August 6 to 19, from 10:00 a.m. to 2:00 p.m., you can take advantage of a wide variety of options. Among the medical and school-related services, you’ll find basic haircuts, CURP printouts, photos, medical certificates (remember to arrive early because space is limited), eye exams, dental checkups, and the administration of vaccinations under the National Health Card program.
Plus, it’s not all about paperwork and checkups. There will be interactive activities such as workshops on packing a healthy lunch, information on the “Plato del Bien Comer” (Healthy Eating Plate) and the “Jarra del Bien Beber” (Healthy Drinking Jug), proper handwashing techniques, a playroom, and even a book swap to continue promoting reading in the community.
Here’s the schedule with the locations so you can find the one closest to you:
