In 10 more days, the Institute of Culture will start installing the figures on the boardwalk and points of greater tourist influx during the Carnival.
The Culture Manager, José Ángel Tostado, stressed that the puppets are missing details and reiterates that they are going to surprise Mazatlecos and visitors.
The International organization of the Mazatlan Carnival ” Todos Somos América” (We are all America), isn in charge of this important event to be held from February 20 to 25.
The election of the child queen and king of joy will be on January 30 and on February 1 the queen of the party and the Floral Games will be chosen.
The elaboration of the floats already started, and everything will be ready on time.
Tostado explained that the distribution of tickets will be made the first week of February and seeks to benefit families from all local colonias.
He called on the population to make good use of the tickets and not to sell them (as it has happened in previous years).
50 percent of the tickets for the children’s queen concert have been sold already. While the ticket for the coronation ceremonies of the queens of the Floral Games and Carnival are up 35 percent.
The official staated that sales go down during the Christmas and New Year’s holidays, but they usually rebound in late January.
