Upcoming Major Events
The Gay Vallarta annual calendar features many special events both gay and not. We've got everything from circuit parties to the gay and lesbian cruises doing that classic "Love Boat" run to Puerto Vallarta. The leather and bear crowd visits annually. And, now Vallarta has a blossoming lesbian event calendar, including Oliva Travel events.
Vallarta's very busiest times are during the USA Thanksgiving holiday late in November, Christmas and New Years weeks, February, and Easter week (locally called Semana Santa).
These are just the upcoming highlights, so check out the other calendar views of our database.
