Talk:Public holidays in Mexico

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

hey, the "caida de tenochtitlan" (August 13) is not a holiday in Mexico, maybe a historical moment, but not a holiday. Mexico does celebrate both the "dia de reyes" (january 6) and christmas. but in "dia de reyes" you done have the day free.

[edit] Dia de Reyes

Should it be added? It is the day you get your Christmas presents, after all.

Some holidays have changed in Mexico. Most changes tend to make the holiday a Monday. For example, Constitution Day is no longer celebrated on Feb 5 but on the first Monday of February and the Day of the Mexican Revolution is not November 20, but the third Monday in November.

I'm not sure about the other changes...

http://www.netogram.com/2008/mexico.htm has a nice general 2008 calendar.

http://www.qppstudio.net/bankholidays2008/mexico.htm has a link that is apparently banned on this chat page listing the official bank holidays. Among them are 11/2/08 and 12/12/08 which are the Dia de los Muertos and the Our Lady of Guadalupe Day respectively. I don't know why the page editor has written these are unofficial holidays. That is either incorrect or merits some source citing. The page I cited shows them to be official. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Bbentrup (talk • contribs) 16:33, 5 May 2008 (UTC)
