Traditional Fiestas in Bahia Asuncion


Every year around the date of the Ascension, Aug.15th, the village of Asuncion holds a 4 day party with lots of fun events. The village fills with family and friends to participate in the fun...horse races, rodeo, off road race, beach sports, a midway with rides and food booths, and lots and lots of live music and dances every night.

The queen is selected for how much money her campaign raised for the fiestas...here she is...and more photos of the event.





the kids had a blast at the fair...








My favorite event is the horse races...live bands and all











I won a 6 pack on this race!





the band Los Altenos de la Sierra played at the dances and we were fortunate to host them at our place for the duration!












Find out where these Traditional Fiestas are and when in the areas you visit in Baja...they are really fun!
