TL;DR
The Palacio de Bellas Artes is a stunning cultural venue in Mexico City’s Historic Center, rich in history and art. While it was once the meeting spot for Lucha Mexico Experience, we no longer meet here. Our current meeting point is now more aligned with the logistics and flow of the experience.
The Palacio de Bellas Artes (Fine Arts Palace) is one of the most important and recognizable cultural landmarks in Mexico. Located in the heart of the Historic Downtown of Mexico City, it’s considered the country’s premier venue for opera, classical music, and the visual arts. It’s also known worldwide for its striking architecture and elaborate interior design.
Commissioned by former president Porfirio Díaz in 1910 to commemorate the 100th anniversary of Mexico’s independence, construction faced several delays and wasn’t completed until November 29, 1934—just over a year after the founding of the Mexican Company of Lucha Libre. (But more on that in another post!)
Inside, you’ll find a variety of exhibition halls and stages, plus two museums. Perhaps most notably, the building houses 17 murals by legendary Mexican artists including Diego Rivera, David Alfaro Siqueiros, and José Clemente Orozco.
Getting There
The main entrance is on Avenida Juárez, one of the busiest and most emblematic streets in Mexico City. If you’re using the Metro, Bellas Artes station connects Line 2 (blue) and Line 8 (green), making it one of the most accessible landmarks in the city.
Important Update: Not Our Meeting Point Anymore
While Palacio de Bellas Artes was previously our meeting spot due to its central location and accessibility by Uber, taxi, or public transport, it is no longer used as our meeting location for Lucha Mexico Experience.
If you book with us, you’ll find the updated meeting point, date, and time clearly specified in your digital itinerary. And don’t worry—your host will still be easy to spot (yes, the only masked man around still applies).
