01The short answer
The main 2026 Todos Santos Mango Festival is Sunday, July 26, from 9:00 AM to 7:00 PM in Plaza Pública Francisco I. Madero. Admission is listed as free.
The official state calendar lists the gastronomic festival on Sunday, July 26. The municipality's current announcement also puts the main gathering on Sunday. That is the day to choose for food stands, producers, artisans, performances, and the larger crowd.
The plaza is in central Todos Santos. If you are coming from Pescadero or Cerritos, give yourself more time than usual for traffic and parking around centro.

Curtis's firsthand photographs show festival stalls and street activity on Saturday. The official state calendar lists the gastronomic festival on Sunday, and the public sources checked for this guide do not provide a dependable Saturday schedule. I would not drive in for a specific Saturday performance without a current organizer post.
03What to expect
This is a town festival built around the mango harvest. Current reporting describes more than 55 mango products, plus food, drinks, local crafts, and performances. The municipality expects more than 3,000 people, and about 90 percent of the exhibitors are reported to be from Todos Santos.
That mix is the reason to go. You are not walking into a generic street fair. The useful part is seeing what local growers, cooks, and makers do with the fruit that defines this time of year.
Bring sun protection and water. Cash is also a sensible backup because public information does not say whether every vendor accepts cards.
04When to go
Go early for food and easier movement. The festival begins at 9:00 AM. Arriving in the first few hours should give you a calmer look at the stands before the plaza fills.
Go later for the social side. The performances and the largest crowd are more likely to build through the day. The public program did not include exact stage times when this guide was checked, so do not plan around a specific act yet.
05Getting there
The event is in Plaza Pública Francisco I. Madero in central Todos Santos. Use the location link above to open the current map separately.
- From Pescadero: plan on Highway 19 into Todos Santos, then expect slower movement near centro.
- From Cerritos: use the same northbound corridor and leave extra time for the turn into town.
- Parking: no official event parking plan was published when this page was checked.
- Accessibility: no event-specific accessibility or reserved parking information was published.
Those last 2 details are open questions, not confirmed services. If either one determines whether you can attend, check the organizer's same-day notice before leaving.
06Photos added, and what to get Sunday
Curtis's first photo pass now gives this guide a real street scene, a current festival poster, and vendor context. The Sunday main event is the chance to add the mango-specific photographs that will make the annual guide useful after this weekend.
A central Todos Santos street scene with festival stalls and a separate mobile crop.
The current street poster showing the Sunday date and plaza location.
A vendor scene showing the street setup and cold-drink stands.
A close, well-lit mango dish or product, with the maker and item name recorded.
The plaza crowd, stage or program board, plus parking and accessibility conditions that help the next visitor plan.
Avoid publishing identifiable children without a parent or guardian's permission. The original July 25 files are preserved outside the website build, and the public delivery copies are separate optimized files.
07What is still being checked
- The exact Saturday, July 25 program, if there is a public one.
- Performance times and the order of the artistic program.
- Official parking instructions and any street closures.
- Event-specific accessibility information.
- Vendor payment methods.
These details are intentionally left open. They will be added only when a current organizer, venue, municipal, or other attributable public source confirms them.
08Sources and verification
This guide was verified on July 25, 2026, against the Baja California Sur tourism calendar, the current municipal announcement reported by Noticias La Paz, and Noro's current event report.
The sources agree on the Sunday main event, central plaza, local producer focus, and morning start. The Saturday program remains unclear. Check the public sources again on the day you attend because local schedules can change.
