Still don’t know what to do in Mexico City for the national holidays? This year, there will be an adrenaline-packed Mexican night at “Amo a México” at Six Flags—an event that will deck out the amusement park in the colors of the Mexican flag, combining the best of Mexican traditions with a touch of horror.
Go ahead and let your friends, family, or special someone know that there’s already a plan to celebrate September 15 starting days before the Cry of Independence, because this event will only take place on Saturday, September 12.

Experience a Mexican night filled with mariachis, lights, and terrifying creatures
Get ready to experience fun, horror, and culture all in one place! “Amo a México” is coming to Six Flags—an event that will celebrate our country’s culture, but with a special, spine-chilling twist.
For one night, the park will feel like a Mexican night; there will be a fantastic drone show at 8:00 p.m., fireworks, live music, and mariachis to dance to the beat of traditional music.
Plus, every corner of Six Flags Mexico will be decked out in green, white, and red, with details inspired by Mexican traditions and culture.
But this won’t be just any celebration of the Cry of Independence! As you make your way from one ride to the next, you’ll see that the national holiday celebration takes a slightly terrifying turn; you’ll encounter some eerie creatures roaming about that might give you quite a scare.
That’s because this Mexican festival at Six Flags will coincide with the Festival of Terror, so you’ll also enjoy spooky seasonal attractions, such as the Zone of Terrors and Dracula’s Castle, among others. You won’t know whether to scream in horror or shout “Viva México”!
Here’s how to get your pass to Amo México at Six Flags
If there’s one thing we know how to do in Mexico, it’s celebrate in a big way. That’s why “Amo a México” at Six Flags promises to be one of the biggest national celebrations you should consider if you weren’t sure what to do in September in Mexico City.
To join this patriotic celebration with plenty of thrills, all you need is your admission to the amusement park. You can purchase tickets online directly on the website.
The best part is that you can take advantage of the fact that the 2027 Gold Annual Pass is on sale through September 17 (for $999), and you can use it for this event and for the rest of the year.
The Gold Annual Pass gives you access to both parks in Mexico, California, and Arizona, as well as free parking.
“Amo a México” will be held for one night only, on September 12, from 10:00 a.m. to 12:00 a.m., and the Horror Festival runs through November 16. But if you want to experience a Mexican night with live music and a good dose of fear, this is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity.
