Summer in Oaxaca isn't measured in degrees; it's measured in color. In streets pulsing to the rhythm of tamboras, in scents rising from hot comales beneath the sun, in dances winding through colonial shadows and blooming balconies.
Heat isn’t endured — it’s celebrated. As the thermometer rises, so does the city: in music, in joy, in soul-stirring intensity. And if there is a place where that fire becomes experience—not exhaustion—it’s here, in Oaxaca, and more precisely, in its most intimate heart.

For those seeking more than a destination, summer in Oaxaca is a chance to connect with life itself: with traditions that keep beating strong, with Oaxacan summer celebrations that transform the city into a vibrant stage of color, song, and ritual.
From market strolls filled with tropical fruit and artisanal mezcal, to afternoons exploring street art and traditional weaving workshops, everything seems to conspire to help you get lost—and found.
Nothing captures the soul of an Oaxacan summer like this ancestral celebration. Communities from the state's eight regions gather to share dances, attire, language, and legacy. It is more than a spectacle; it’s communion. The Guelaguetza isn’t simply watched—it’s felt in your chest, like a drumbeat that links you to something older than memory.
Throughout July and August, towns across Oaxaca celebrate their own vibrant calendars. Processions, live music, folk art, and unforgettable food. Each event writes a new page in the ongoing story of the region—and you’re invited to be part of it.
On every corner, Oaxacan summer traditions come to life: in colors, in flavor, in that rare mix of history and now that makes this city so singular.
After wandering through a city that never stops dancing, there is a place that offers a different kind of rhythm.
Just steps from the historic center, yet hidden like a well-kept secret, stands El Callejón Hotel Boutique.
An oasis framed by adobe walls and lush greenery. A space where the murmur of water replaces the noise of the world, and every room is a work of art infused with peace and beauty.
Here, Oaxaca’s summer heat transforms: into cool hammock shade, the scent of freshly picked lemon verbena from the garden, a mezcal poured with the reverence of simplicity.
El Callejón Hotel Boutique is more than a place to sleep: it’s where experience turns inward, where every corner echoes with the same authenticity you find on Oaxaca’s most vibrant streets.
