The wait is over: the concert lineup for Aqüifera, the new edition of the 2026 Chapultepec Forest Festival, has been revealed, and it’s packed with music, nature, and unmissable experiences.
From April 2 to 5, Chapultepec Forest will be transformed into a massive open-air stage featuring free activities that combine art, environmental awareness, and music for all tastes. This year, the festival centers on water as its central theme: the origin, memory, and future of Mexico City.
Under this premise, Aqüifera offers a sensory experience that invites reflection on the role of water in the city’s history and daily life. And what better place than Chapultepec, a space deeply linked to this element since pre-Hispanic times.
