How to attend
Buy day passes or individual experience tickets on festivalmoreliaenboca.com when the program is announced in spring; general passes are moderately priced while Mesa MEB and gala dinners are premium and sell out. Open to the public with no membership needed. Reserve accommodation in Morelia's historic centre early, as the festival weekend fills the best colonial hotels.
Tickets for the 2027 edition are not on sale yet - the festival's own ticket link still points to a past edition.
Insider tip
Prioritise the sessions with Michoacan's traditional cocineras - the region's cooks are the reason Mexican cuisine holds UNESCO intangible heritage status, and their tastings sell out before the international chef dinners.
