MEXICO CITY — Mexico City’s Corona Capital 2026 runs Friday through Sunday, Nov. 20-22, at the Autódromo Hermanos Rodríguez, with Gorillaz, Twenty One Pilots and The Strokes headlining the three nights of one of the city’s biggest music festivals.

Organizer OCESA’s official site lists the festival at the racetrack’s Curva 4 area in the Iztacalco borough, on the east side of the city. Gates open at 2 p.m. Mexico City time each day, and the festival says shows end around 2 a.m. Some individual-day tickets were still on sale Monday night, Nov. 9, though the cheapest phases are gone.

If you’re flying in for the weekend, the venue is only about 7 kilometers from Mexico City International Airport, according to the festival. Our guide to getting from Mexico City airport to Roma Norte and Condesa covers taxi fares and app pickup rules.

Mexico City’s Corona Capital 2026: how to get to the Autódromo Hermanos Rodríguez

• Metro: Line 9 (brown, Pantitlán-Tacubaya) to Velódromo, Ciudad Deportiva or Puebla stations. The standard Metro fare is 5 pesos.
• Metrobús: Line 2 (purple, Tacubaya-Tepalcates) to UPIICSA or El Rodeo.
• Car: parking is through Gate 15 on Calle Añil, subject to availability. Ticketmaster also sells parking and a Ticket2Ride shuttle as add-ons.
• Getting home: the Metro stops running at midnight, before the headliners finish, so plan a ride app, an authorized taxi or the shuttle for the trip back.

The festival lists Gates 6, 7 and 15 for entry. Expect two checkpoints: ticket and ID first, then an airport-style bag and body search.

Mexico City festival tips for Corona Capital first-timers

• Age and ID: the festival recommends attendees be 16 or older; you must be 18 with ID to drink. Accepted ID is a Mexican INE voter card or a passport. Driver’s licenses, student IDs and consular cards are not accepted for alcohol.
• No re-entry: once your ticket is scanned you can’t leave and come back.
• No umbrellas: bring a light rain jacket instead. November nights in Mexico City can turn cold after sunset.
• Late entry cutoff: the festival says entry usually closes about three hours before the last show.
• Zero tolerance for drugs: police work inside and outside the venue.
• Phones and wallets: crowded exits are prime pickpocket territory. Read our Mexico City safety guide for tourists before you go.
