San Miguel De Allende, Mexico | November 15, 2025

Located in the historic center of a UNESCO World Heritage city, Rosewood San Miguel de Allende draws inspiration from local art, culture, and tradition to offer an experience that reflects the vibrant and sophisticated lifestyle of San Miguel. Conceived as a modern Mexican hacienda, the hotel blends the destination’s rich history with a contemporary vision that celebrates its creative essence and deep cultural roots.

Throughout December, Rosewood San Miguel de Allende radiates the festive spirit, where Mexican traditions intertwine with contemporary sophistication to bring to life one of the most special times of the year. The property invites guests and visitors to enjoy a calendar of celebrations that highlight the warmth and sense of community that distinguish San Miguel de Allende.

The holiday season begins on December 4 with the traditional Tree Lighting Ceremony at Patio Casona, an emotional evening filled with the sounds of the local church choir singing carols as guests enjoy Mexican treats and ponche. This event marks the official start of the festivities and opens a month filled with experiences that capture the essence of Mexican hospitality.

Throughout the season, Sense, A Rosewood Spa will offer treatments designed for wellbeing and renewal, perfect for ending the year on a balanced note. Highlights include the Sports Massage with Cryogenic Gel, Fitness Classes, and the Aromatherapy Journey featuring alchemic oils—experiences designed to restore balance to body, mind, and spirit before the new year begins. At Artesana Boutique, visitors can find special holiday gifts, from local jewelry and artisanal fashion to handcrafted bakery delights.

Among the special December activities, guests and visitors can discover the secrets behind Mexico’s most emblematic dishes in group cooking classes, or enjoy a seven-course tasting menu reimagined each week at Pirules Garden Kitchen, featuring locally sourced ingredients.

 

Events During The Festive Season

On December 23, Rosewood San Miguel de Allende celebrates one of Mexico’s most beloved traditions with an evening filled with symbolism and holiday spirit: the Callejoneada and Posada in the Lavanda Garden. The night begins with a warm welcome cocktail around the Christmas tree, surrounded by glowing lights, live music, and the aroma of freshly made ponche, as festive décor transforms every corner. As guests gather, the celebration evolves into a lively callejoneada through the hotel’s pathways, led by a local estudiantina and the joyful spirit of all attendees. Guests and associates join together in the traditional posada songs, lighting sparklers that illuminate the night, symbolizing the unity and hope that define the season. The procession ends in the Lavanda Garden, where “pilgrims” are welcomed with a feast of Mexican street food and culinary stations that recreate the authentic flavors of the holidays. With live music and piñatas for children, the evening becomes a heartfelt celebration of the joy of sharing.

The nights of December 24 and 25 are dedicated to the Christmas Eve and Christmas Dinners, two memorable evenings at 1826 Restaurant and Pirules Garden Kitchen, where local ingredients meet international inspiration in menus crafted especially for the occasion. An intimate atmosphere and live acoustic music create the perfect setting for families to share moments of warmth and celebration. On December 25, the traditional Christmas Brunch at 1826 Restaurant will delight guests with gourmet stations and a vibrant ambiance that captures the magic of Christmas morning.

On December 31, Rosewood San Miguel de Allende invites guests to ring in the New Year with an elegant New Year’s Eve Dinner at Pirules Garden Kitchen, followed by the grand New Year’s Eve Party at Luna Rooftop and Jardín Rosewood. The unforgettable evening will feature a midnight toast, acoustic performances, and fireworks that will light up the San Miguel sky as guests welcome 2026 with gratitude.
