LOS ANGELES, CA, UNITED STATES, December 2, 2025 /EINPresswire.com/ -- Plaza Mexico hosts its annual celebration of ‘Dia de La Virgen de Guadalupe’ (The Virgin of Guadalupe Day) on December 11 & 12, 2025.The celebrations begin on the evening of December 11th with the community gathering for a theatrical reenactment of the apparition of Our Lady of Guadalupe, which includes the creation of a symbolic altar. It culminates in a heartfelt serenade to the Virgin Mother with the traditional birthday song ‘Las Mañanitas’ led by Mariachi Azteca. The two-day activities take place amidst a festive atmosphere with Plaza Mexico filled with love and pride in their faith, their homeland, and each other.
This year's celebrations will include traditional dancers, a mariachi performance, local performers and distribution of ‘pan dulce’ (sweet bread) and coffee.
‘Dia de La Virgen de Guadalupe’ commemorates the miraculous appearance of Our Lady of Guadalupe to the indigenous man Juan Diego on Tepeyac Hill, where her image was imprinted on his tilma (cloak). Guadalupe Day is both a Catholic holiday and a Mexican National Holiday celebrated annually on December 12 to commemorate the Virgin Mary's appearance to Saint Juan Diego on Tepeyac Hill in Guadelupe, Mexico in the year 1531. The Virgin Mary's image was imprinted on Saint Juan Diego's tilma (cloak) and has since become a symbol of both Catholic, Mexican, Mexican American pride.
