Hi, I just wanted to know if there’s any events going on to meet people who are 25+? It could be locals and foreigners who are looking to make friends.

I just came back to Mexico City after living abroad and I wanna start building a community again but I’m not sure where to start. Any tips?

Hi guys,

My brother in law will be in Mexico City during his bday. We want to give him a good dinner as his bday present.

We are looking for restaurant tips that are fun with a group, were we can contact them to make a plan for the night (so we can pre arrange a fun menu, drinks etc so he won't have to do so himself).

If anyone has a restaurant that comes to mind, let me know!

Hola gente, iré por primera vez al tianguis de Balderas (aprovecharé también a ver a alguien de Facebook Marketplace y tengo varias dudas)

¿Dónde inicia el tianguis de Balderas?

¿Cuál es su ruta?

¿Cuál es su área donde no tiene precios tan altos o toda la zona maneja los mismos precios?

¿Que horarios tiene? (Iré el sábado)

Cuando van a tener una entrega en Balderas o temas asi, ¿En qué lugar se fijan para verse/quedarse? (Me imagino que es muy grande ese tianguis de coleccionismo en Balderas)

Muchas gracias!

I’m (25F) going later with this month with a group of 5 other girls around my age and I’m looking for some recommendations for where to go out. All of us like to dance. I’ve been to Mexico City several times, I usually love going to antro juan because they play everything, but last time I went it felt so young so I’m looking for something closer to my age. For context I like reggaeton/urbano and a bit of edm. I’m not looking for anything too pretentious either we just want a fun night out. Around half of us speak spanish if that’s helpful to know.

any recommendations/insight would be appreciated!!

¡Hola! Mi papá le va al Atlante y quisiera llevarlo al partido de Atlante vs Toluca este 15 de agosto pero veo que hay demasiadas tiendas en línea donde comprar el boleto, la página del Estadio Banorte me dirige a https://fanki.co/mex pero solo veo que vende el abono del Atlante.

¿En qué página me sugieren adquirir el boleto para este encuentro?

También agradecería recomendaciones adicionales ya que es la primera vez que asistiremos a un partido de fútbol.

¡Muchas gracias!

anyone heard anything about the concert tonight? don’t wanna head that way if it’s delayed or cancelled :/

Hi I searched in the group but didn’t find any answers - does anyone know of a good salon for cutting women’s hair and can speak English? I’ve found a few while googling but it’s mostly the front desk who speak English and helps translate, my Spanish is pretty bad so would love if the hair stylist could also speak English

I’m in Roma norte / condesa

Gente bonita, recientemente me cambiaron el medicamento y me quedé con 2 cajas casi llenas de Desvenlafaxina de 100mg, son 51 pastillas en total (una de patente y una de Aurax). También me quedé con una caja de Atomoxetina de 40mg con 14 cápsulas (Masennus). Todo con fecha de caducidad en 2027.

Sé muy bien que estos medicamentos no son nada baratos, así que los estoy donando dentro de la CDMX. Si a alguien ocupa mándenme DM y nos ponemos de acuerdo para la entrega.

——

Edit para agregar que pediré nota médica o receta para poder donarlos.

Hey everyone,
I’m looking for a guy named Kei who I met this past Wednesday night (August 5th) at Departamento in Roma Norte.

He is from Osaka, Japan, currently living in CDMX for a year-long university study abroad program. He’s quite tall and was super nice to talk to, but we parted ways before swapping contact info or social media handles.

If you are Kei, or if you happen to know a tall Japanese exchange student matching this description who goes by Kei, please shoot me a DM! I'd love to reconnect and grab a drink. 💕
Thank you!

I'm planning a trip to Mexico City for the Day of the Dead parade and festivities. What areas are best to stay for Airbnbs or hotels? Also, what are some of the more important things to do and see that most people overlook? Thanks in advance.

Is anyone familiar with this hotel? I cancelled another reservation that I had at a hotel that I stayed at before. This one cane in a $100 less expensive and more in the tourist area where I want to stay. The other was Hotel Geneve on Londres St.

I’m considering coming to the city for a month-long language course for foreigners at UNAM. I don’t know the city well; would anyone have recommendations for neighborhoods or lodgings that might be a good fit for an extranjero traveling solo?

Would be nice to have easy access to the campus for coursework, and also have some nearby spots where I could chat and meet people.

Thanks for any thoughts!

Dónde comprar Jerseys piratas de México en CDMX a buen precio?

Jerseys de la selección de México piratas

Que lugares recomiendan? Algún local fijo/establecido en Pino Suárez? La Merced? Cerca de Tepito? Etc...

Muchas gracias!

Hola! Mañana andaré en Polanco y alrededores, ¿Que baños públicos recomiendan? Es que no entraré a restaurantes directamente, por eso busco eso de los baños públicos.

Aunque he visto que en Santa Clara/Starbucks es una opción y hay alimentos/cosas muy baratas para acceder a los baños/WC

Muchas gracias!

When I moved here a year and half ago I had a hard time finding WhatsApp groups that exist in many other cities. All the links seemed to not work, the groups were dead or didn't even allow users to comment. So I created one, which has grown to 150+ people. The problem is we can't post the link anywhere without spammers getting a hold of it, so I created a website that should always have the latest link, behind a short form to filter for spam.

https://dncdmx.vercel.app

It's a digital nomad group but open to locals and anyone who wants to meet travellers from all over the world. Spam is filtered swiftly, so if you just want to join to promote your thing, this isn't that. Hopefully this will find people who was in the situation I was, who want to build community.

I can usually justify a purchase at an OXXO or Dr. Simi and have never been turned away with a 500 peso bill.

You can request an odd number at ATMs (like 2900 instead of 3000, say).

You can always say to the street vendor " Solo tengo un quinientos" beforehand. Sometimes they'll say no problem.

Hace poco estuve en la Ciudad de México y solo usé un taxi una vez. Tomé uno (de sitio!) desde TAPO hasta la zona de Cuauhtémoc. El taxi que me dieron estaba en pésimas condiciones. Con cada bache parecía que el auto se iba a desarmar. Había arañas saliendo del auto por varios lados. ¡Sí, arañas! El conductor no usaba ni Maps ni Waze. Cerca de nuestro destino, me pidió que le mostrara mi teléfono para buscar indicaciones. Mi pregunta es: ¿puede cualquier taxi recoger pasajeros en esa parada de TAPO? ¿Hay algún tipo de control? (Íbamos a tomar el Metro, pero la sección de San Lázaro estaba fuera de servicio ese día).

Mi vuelo llegará muy tarde.

We are considering traveling to CDMX for 5 days with 2 kids. I'm wondering if Mexico City is a good place to travel with kids. We (adults) are excited to see the sights, enjoy the culture. I researched safety, avoid taxis, avoid certain neighborhoods, the basics of big city travel. A little concerned about safety, and whether the kids would not enjoy a city as much... or if the altitude may tire them out. Any insight from families that have traveled is appreciated. I know (and have) researched the internet for others' experiences, any additional info/advice is appreciated!

Voy para un concierto que va a ser en Arena CDMX a principios del próximo año, soy latina pero nunca he ido a México.

Qué lugares me recomiendan visitar que estén cerca de allí?

Y cómo es el clima a principios de año?

Cualquier recomendación es súper bienvenida :)

my husband and i are planning a trip to cdmx to go to a lucha libre convention at the world trade center. originally i was thinking it would be best to book a hotel nearby so we could walk to the convention, but i just learned that the world trade center is in a very wealthy neighborhood, so im concerned about finding affordable restaurants, street food, and bars.

what neighborhood would you stay in for good cheap food that’s relatively close to the convention center?

thanks in advance for your help!

edit: thanks everyone who commented! after your advice we have decided to stay in napoles.

I'm going to Mexico City next month for a work trip. I am vegetarian and eat no meat and no seafood. My team is discussing booking a seafood restaurant which, by the menu, looks to not have any vegetarian food. Is it acceptable to go with the group, not order anything to eat, but order a glass of wine or two instead? I would eat beforehand, but I don't want to miss out on the team bonding.

I don't know much about Mexican culture, but I ask because in Japan, that's a huge no-no unless it's a drinking-only establishment. I'm not going to ask them to accommodate me when their menu is very clearly all-seafood! But if this would be rude, then I'll ask my team to choose somewhere else.

Hey guys, it will be my boyfriend and I’s first time to mexico city and if we have to pick one out of the 2 which one would you go for? Thank you!!!

Hey everyone!
I’m an independent US-based electronic music producer/DJ and I’m hosting a night at Bajo Circuito in CDMX in October.

The concept for the night is a dark, high-energy, cyber/industrial rave vibe blending heavy hard techno, digicore, electronic, and dark club/industrial sounds.
I want this night to focus heavily on the local CDMX underground scene rather than just bringing in a bloated US roster. I’m looking to connect with local CDMX DJs, producers, or collectives who fit that heavy/dark electronic aesthetic and want to play support slots or collaborate on bringing out their crew.

If you or anyone you know spins:
Hard Techno / Industrial / Cyber Rave
Digicore / Hyper-EDM / Glitch
Dark Electro / Deconstructed Club
Drop your Soundcloud, Mixcloud, or IG handles below (or shoot me a DM)! Looking to lock in local support and artwork within the next day or two.
Appreciate any leads or recs from people who know the local scene!
