IIPM PUBLICATION AND EDITORIAL: Feast day

On the feast day of the saint, one can sight a para

de, which winds through downtown Aguascalientes with people dancing to the sones, jarabes, cuadrillas, polkas, and redovas and schotis. The spectacular 21-day festival features bull-fights, folkloric dancing, games, cock- fights, horse riding and various othe cultural events. With rising popularity and demand, in 1992, a new bullring was designed to host 15,000 enthusiasts, but horse riding remains the prime Mexican sport, which takes place in the magnificent Villa Charra. Amidst all the bulls and horses, men and women perspiring at the fate of their wagers, yell and buck up the horses and screech at cocks’ every move! Besides, competitions and exhibitions by cattle breeders, dairy farmers and sheep ranchers mark the agricultural and the more sedate aspect of the fair.
