The official explained that the streets that will be closed are in the vicinity of the Municipal Palace, including 21 de Marzo, Aquiles Serdán, José María Canizález, Guillermo Nelson, 5 de Mayo and Ángel Flores. Closing is scheduled for September 15 due to setting up of furniture for vendors. 

On Saturday, September 16, the Independence Parade will take place, starting at 8:00 in the morning and starting from the Fisherman’s Monument, concluding at the Great Sea of Cortés Aquarium. 

During the parade, roads such as Zaragoza, Paseo Claussen and Juan Carrasco will be closed, as well as the avenues that intersect with the Cruz Lizárraga, such as Lola Beltrán and Río Elota.
