Puerto Vallarta Art Walk 2025–2026: A Stroll Through Art, Tradition & Mexican Charm

In Puerto Vallarta, art isn’t just displayed in museums—it lives in the cobblestone streets, the colorful walls, and the bohemian soul of its Historic Center. One of the city’s most beloved cultural celebrations returns once again: the Puerto Vallarta Art Walk 2025–2026, held from October 29, 2025, to May 27, 2026, every Wednesday from 6:00 to 10:00 pm.

This free cultural event turns Wednesday nights into a festival of creativity. More than a dozen art galleries open their doors to showcase the best of local, national, and international talent. From vibrant paintings and modern sculptures to fine ceramics and unique jewelry, the Art Walk is a journey where tradition meets contemporary vision.

One night or several?

While you can experience the Art Walk in just one evening, many visitors soon realize it’s worth returning on multiple Wednesdays. Each walk offers something new:

• First visit – Wander freely, explore, and step into the galleries that call your attention.
• Second visit – Go back to your favorites, talk with artists, and dive deeper into the meaning behind their work.
• Multiple visits – Every week brings new exhibitions and special events, making each Art Walk unique.

Just like Puerto Vallarta itself, the Art Walk is never the same twice—there’s always something new to discover.

Suggested Art Walk Route

To make the most of the evening, here’s a recommended route through some of the Historic Center’s galleries:

• Galería Corsica – Contemporary Mexican art at its finest.
• Colectika Gallery – A must-see for Huichol art and Indigenous-inspired folk art.
• Galería Pacifico – Elegant paintings and sculptures by established artists.
• The Loft Gallery – A modern space featuring bold and emerging talent.
• Galería Dante – One of Vallarta’s largest galleries, set in a charming colonial house.
• Recommended stop: midway through the walk, enjoy a coffee at Café de Olla or sip a margarita at a cozy cantina near the malecón.
• Galería Uno – The city’s first contemporary art gallery, open since 1972.
• Colektika Folk Art – Bright ceramics, textiles, and pieces filled with Mexican identity.
• Browne Gallery – A space where photography and contemporary design meet.

Tip: Wear comfortable shoes, charge your phone or camera, and let the warm gallery lights guide your path.
