In addition to the Christmas lights, there will be presentations and artistic shows, typical Christmas characters such as Santa Claus and Mrs. Claus, elves, puppets, snow tunnels, and other attractions for the enjoyment of families, particularly the youngest members of the household. It will be from 6:00 p.m. to 10:00 p.m., Monday through Sunday.
According to the Presidency’s Administrative Minister, José Ignacio Paliza, it is a public-private partnership effort with funds provided by the Government and private companies, with the security of place so that families can enjoy without worrying about elements of insecurity. He stated that to gain access to these free spaces, it will be necessary to follow regulations such as not carrying firearms and not carrying devices that could be used inappropriately.
