Día de la Revolución (Revolution Day) – October 20
Día de la Revolución, or Revolution Day, is one of Mexico’s most important national holidays, observed every October 20th. This day marks the anniversary of the start of the Mexican Revolution in 1910—a transformative period when citizens united to challenge a long-standing, corrupt government. The revolution not only ended a dictatorship but also sparked sweeping political, social, and economic reforms that continue to influence modern Mexico.
