If you’re looking for a nice, inexpensive thing to do in the city, then check out these free concerts at the Ex Convento del Carmen in Guadalajara.
Listening to live music is always a great plan, but doing so for free and inside one of the most emblematic buildings in the Historic Center of Guadalajara is something else entirely.
During March 2026, the Ex Convento del Carmen opens its doors for a new edition of Martes Musicales, a series of concerts in the Higinio Ruvalcaba Hall.
A beautiful venue built in the 17th century, the atmosphere, the walls, and the courtyards make each concert feel special and deeply immersive.
