Hotel Calafia sits on Calzada Justo Sierra, in the Los Pinos neighborhood, a few minutes from the Centro Cívico. The festival is outdoors, in the hotel garden. By late October Mexicali nights cool down, so a light jacket helps. If you plan to drink, plan your ride home: taxi, rideshare or a designated driver.
