About the city: Boca del Río
Boca del Río, a coastal city in the state of Veracruz and part of the wider metropolitan area shared with the port city of Veracruz, has developed into an important hub for entertainment, sports, conventions and concerts on Mexico’s Gulf of Mexico coast. World Trade Center Veracruz, Estadio Luis “Pirata” Fuente, Estadio Beto Ávila and Foro Boca give the city a diverse range of venues for major sporting events, live music, exhibitions and cultural programs. With a well-developed hotel district, restaurants known for seafood specialties and a lively coastal atmosphere, Boca del Río is a practical destination for visitors who want to combine attending an event with a stay by the sea.
For visitors arriving from other parts of Mexico or from abroad, the main gateway is Aeropuerto Internacional General Heriberto Jara Corona, which serves the Veracruz–Boca del Río metropolitan area. Public transport in the conurbation includes the Ulúa bus system, while taxis provide an additional option for more direct connections between hotels, the waterfront, stadiums and event venues. Major urban routes such as Boulevard Manuel Ávila Camacho and Boulevard Adolfo Ruiz Cortines connect the tourist and business districts with the rest of the metropolitan area, making journeys between accommodation, World Trade Center Veracruz, sports facilities and other event locations easy to organize.
Before or after a concert or match, it is worth exploring the Boca del Río waterfront, the Jamapa River and Plaza Banderas, one of the recognizable places in the city’s traditional center. Foro Boca stands near the area where the river meets the sea and provides an excellent reason for a waterfront walk, while the historic part of the city features the Palacio Municipal and Plaza Cívica Benito Juárez. A visit can also easily be extended to the nearby historic center of the port city of Veracruz, allowing Boca del Río to combine sports or music with beaches, local cuisine, river scenery and the distinctive atmosphere of Mexico’s Gulf coast.
