Xcaret México Espectacular Show

One of the most spectacular shows in Cancun and Riviera Maya

Included in your admission

As night falls, Xcaret gets ready to host one of the most surprising shows in Cancun and Riviera Maya, featuring more than 300 artists on stage. Having the impressive scenario of the Gran Tlachco as home, you will hop on a journey through the rich culture of Mexico.

Attend the artists’ presentation that will take you by more than 500 years of history at the most famous Xcaret show. Approach the culture of our country since the pre-Columbian era, the Conquest of Mexico times, the Colonial Era, the first years of Mexico as an independent country, the Revolution years at the beginning of the 20th Century, until reaching our days. Mexico is a fascinating blending of traditions of culture that have endured the pass of the centuries.

Historical Reenactments

The journey begins more than 500 years ago with a Pre-Hispanic ritual, following the Owl’s Dance, which recreates the moment where the lords of the underworld, known as Xibalbá, invite the divine twins, Huainpú and Ixbalanque, to have a ballgame with them.

Owl’s Dance

The Pre-Hispanic Ballgame is one of the most relevant scenes at the Xcaret night show, as part of the life and death ritual. Also, there will be a representation of the Ball of Fire Game, played in the Purepecha region, nowadays the Mexican state of Michoacán, about 3,000 years ago.

Ball of Fire Game

Follow the scenes of Cortés arrival, the march on Tenochtitlan, and how he was confused as the Quetzalcoatl deity, besides the battle and the evangelization process that results in the Encounter of Two Worlds with a mestizo country full of traditions. Enjoy a legendary night show in Cancun and Riviera Maya.
