Cancun – This morning, a civic ceremony was held with the presence of pioneers and municipal authorities to kick off the festivities for the 53rd Anniversary of Cancun.
“We have reached this anniversary amidst challenges and difficulties, but thanks to the men and women and the will of the authorities, we can continue to advance in the development of this beautiful city that has given us so much. And in this 53rd anniversary, we can celebrate it because the name itself is now a recognized brand worldwide,” said Jorge Aguilar Osorio, the secretary of the municipality of Benito Juarez, during his participation.
A meaningful celebration
The Municipal Symphony Orchestra participated in this event and performed songs like “Cancun is calling me” and “Dream of Me, Quintana Roo.” These songs reminded everyone of the old times when the streets were still sandy and the treatment was warm from its first inhabitants.
