The heat team is grateful that the sun is already warming up Mexico City! It’s time to get out your sunglasses, cool outfits, and seasonal fruits. Of course, we can’t forget one of the most popular desserts during spring and summer. Best of all, ice cream will have its own festival in Mexico City: an event with festivities and culture that goes far beyond the cone.
Ice cream, snow cones, popsicles, and frappés of every flavor imaginable will be there to cool you down. The classic options will be available, but if you want to take a chance on your palate, we recommend trying the innovative recipes with ingredients you never imagined.
It should be noted that this event focuses on artisanal creations, so you’ll enjoy family heirloom desserts, local productions, and offerings from small businesses.
Festivities and multiculturalism at the 2026 Ice Cream Festival in Mexico City
This event will be a truly intercultural gathering because, in addition to ice cream, it will also host the Colors of Mexico and the World festival: different countries will come together in one place so that visitors can learn about their culture, cuisine, music, and crafts. Get ready for an international trip without a passport!
When and where will these festivals be held?

Both events will take place on May 30 and 31 at the Churubusco Convention Center (Calzada de Tlalpan 1721, Coyoacán), very close to the General Anaya Metro station. You can attend from 11:00 a.m. to 6:00 p.m.; admission is free.
Don’t melt! If you’re looking for something refreshing and delicious in May, this festival will be your salvation and a perfect plan to share with your favorite people.
