The fourth edition of the Agave and Its Roots Festival has officially solidified Purisima del Rincon as a premier destination for vibrant cultural events and economic growth. This spectacular celebration not only honors the identity and traditions of the municipality but also crosses borders, welcoming local culinary masters as well as international guests from around the globe.
Mayor Roberto Garcia Urbano warmly welcomed every visitor and expressed his deep gratitude for the trust placed in every local project.
“With the support of the State Government, our commitment to the community shines through in events that boost the municipal economy. Agave is grown and harvested right here in Purisima, a proud holder of the official designation of origin. We have people who truly invest in development, which is why Purisima is such an important tourist destination. Having products that put our municipality on the map fills us with pride as we showcase everything Purisima has to offer to the world,” the President said.
Garcia Urbano also extended a warm Father’s Day congratulation to all dads, recognizing their fundamental role in building a society that allows Purisima to transcend through its people.
The opening ceremony boasted a distinguished presence of authorities from all three levels of government and the private sector. Representing Governor Libia Dennise, the State Secretary of Tourism and Identity, Lupita Robles, praised the initiative behind the activities in Canada de Negros and this fourth edition of the Agave Festival.

This year’s lineup truly shined due to its diversity, proudly hosting delegations from Algeria, El Salvador, Egypt, and Venezuela as guest countries.
