On November 16, 2025, thousands of spectators gathered at the Plaza Revolución bullring in Irapuato, Guanajuato, Mexico, for a traditional corrida commemorating the upcoming anniversary of the Mexican Revolution. What began as a patriotic celebration quickly turned into a striking political demonstration as the crowd erupted in chants of “¡Fuera Morena!”—a call for the ruling party to step down.
The protest emerged spontaneously following a solemn flag ceremony. As the national anthem concluded and cries of “¡Viva México!” echoed through the arena, the mood shifted. Attendees—many waving flags and dressed in traditional attire—joined in a unified chant against the Morena party, which currently holds federal power.

Videos circulating online show the packed bullring reverberating with the chant, underscoring growing public discontent in the region. The event, intended to honor revolutionary heritage, became a symbolic platform for civic expression.
Local commentators noted that Guanajuato has historically leaned toward opposition parties, and the demonstration reflects broader political tensions ahead of the 2026 elections. While no incidents were reported, the moment captured national attention and sparked debate over the role of public gatherings in political discourse.
