Bringing Downtown Mexico to Life

Mainstreet Mexico helps create events and experiences that bring people together on The Square — from pop-up markets and seasonal celebrations to community traditions and special events. Our events support local businesses, encourage foot traffic, and create meaningful connections between neighbors, visitors, and entrepreneurs. 

Our Mission

"To strengthen downtown Mexico through collaboration, historic preservation, economic development, and community engagement — ensuring The Square remains a vibrant and sustainable place for generations to come."
