    Excellent place to be with family and friends, learn a little about the culture of Chiapas, Mexico. Recommended if you come to Chiapas, you can't miss this dance.

    Had a great time here it was fantastic to meet some of the locals, which were extremely friendly and always willing to take me out to dance. One of the individuals I met was an elderly man, who gave me the scoop on half of the town that was there dancing lol I laughed the entire night and enjoyed the atmosphere tremendously. Even met The Queen of El Parque de la Marimba she introduced her self as such, but the elderly man told me that she was actually not the queen haha but considered herself the I-Ternal queen in the park! Highly recommend this little spot!

    Central place of Tuxtla. The city name is written with iconic elements such as the canyon de sumidero. A lot of life happens on this ventral place and marimba is played most of the day.Feel free to dance with locals! The coffee shop around are very good with authentic Chiapas coffee

    A must go to while in Tuxtla! They have music from Wednesday to Sunday. 6-8:30pm. Great atmosphere and many vendors around the park for delicious treats, food and drinks. Great time to unwind after a long day of exploring.

    Is a historic park with live marimba music, every night you can dance different kind of rythms with your mate or meet someone else to dance. So familiar environment, I just love it.

  • 3/5 Thomas M. 1 year ago on Google
    This is your standard urban park in Latin America. Not amazing, not horrible. Decent place to stop and sit on a park bench to tie your shoe or watch some pigeons looking for crumbs. Pretty uneventful overall.

  • 5/5 Joe M. 1 year ago on Google
    I was there on a Thursday and Friday night, and both nights there was a marimb band playing in the kiosk with people dancing all around it. Fun place.

  • 5/5 Michael S. 1 year ago on Google

    It's a nice park had lunch there but honestly just skip tuxla and go to San Cristobal

  • 4/5 Leonard 1 year ago on Google
    They get lit in this park. I was surprised. There are lots of bars and restaurants and love entertainers that engage the crowd here.

  • 5/5 george w. 1 year ago on Google
    Music Wednesday to Sunday 7-9pm Many street vendors and coffee shops. Nice venue after, or near, sundown.

  • 5/5 Antonio A. 1 year ago on Google
    This is the heart of Tuxtla, unlike centro park. This place has trees!! And it's a valuable refreshing place in the middle of the concrete madness.

  • 5/5 Samer A. 9 months ago on Google
    It is an icon of the city. You must visit this place and enjoy their music, the marimba. You can taste the marquesitas but more important the esquites.

    Lay down park in central Tuxtla Gtz. [Update 29 june 2022] After a period out of music, due to covid, the park is again having the traditional music and dancing sessions. It happens roughly around 18-20 h. Surrounding the square there are many traditional restaurants (and few torist traps) to taste a bit of the region.

    We spent a beatiful night under musical notes of la marimba. A free event for avery one. You only need lots of energy to dance. People all over tuxtla. Guitierres come to this even which is on Fridays nights.

    If there is one worthwhile thing in the ugly town of Tuxtla Gutiérrez, it’s Marimba Park. A real pleasure and probably a cultural treasure. I hope it never ends. To put it another way, why the hell are you in TG if you don’t come here? It’s a dirty ‘ol town.

👍👍 Love this park. So pretty with all the palm trees and greenery. We think it’s the prettiest park in the entire Tuxtla and San Cristóbal area. Also love the ponds - there’s lot of fish to feed and occasionally a few ducks. Very tranquil place. Very clean. Nice vibe.
