101 years since the revolution. Huge parade, loads of fun. Benito Juarez will be closed. Not sure of the schedule but it is usually in the afternoon.
Anyone with details please post. Thanks.

What exactly is the holiday called? I know the normal Mexican Independence day is on Sept 16th... And Saturday is the 19th.

Ah, answered my own question: November 20 Revolution Day Día de la Revolución Commemorates the start of the Mexican Revolution by Francisco I. Madero in 1910 (See also Patriotic holidays in Mexico).
Observance: Third Monday of November.
