Learn the secrets of the most traditional and spectacular of Mexico's sports, with this authentic Mexican wrestling show in the Arena Mexico, the mecca of wrestling. We'll also visit a Tequila and Mezcal Museum.
Description
After meeting your guide on Calle Monte de Piedad at the scheduled time, you'll hop aboard an open-top bus for a tour of central Mexico City.
First up, we'll make a pit stop at Garibaldi Square to enjoy a brief tour of the Tequila and Mezcal Museum. No visit would be complete without a tasting of the signature product! Before leaving, we'll sit down to sip on 3 of the best tequilas and mezcals in Mexico as we're serenaded by a live mariachi band.
The bus tour will come to an end at the Arena Mexico for the main event. Mexican wrestling is a kind of Olympic wrestling characterised by its spectacular acrobatics such as dangerous jumps outside the ring in a mixture of sport and drama which is as popular as football in Mexico. The wrestlers use a mask to hide their real identity, creating characters that are idolised and mythologised in equal measure by their fans.
You'll attend a live Mexican wrestling show consisting of 2 or 3 rounds and learn all about the show from your audio guide. As an added bonus in the stadium, we'll give you a gift as a souvenir.
The Lucha Libre Wrestling Show will last approximately 3 hours. At the end of the spectacular show, you'll return by bus to the original meeting point.
Arena Mexico
Built in 1956 and with a capacity of 14,000, the Arena Mexico is the most important lucha libre stadium in the world. Today it's the headquarters for the World Wrestling Council and is managed by the Mexican Wrestling Company, the longest-running and most traditional wrestling company, which organises shows on Tuesdays and Fridays all year round.
Your seats will be located in the central preferential area, whose location can be found in the following map:
