https://www.zihuatanejo.net/tablero/ Information for visitors and locals about Zihuatanejo, Ixtapa, Troncones, Barra de Potosí and the surrounding region of the Costa Grande in Guerrero, Mexico en For the most part, the events are rather pricey for locals but sound wonderful. Locals are being offered a 15% discount on all tickets and you must go to the Ixtapa office over by Nueva Zelandia and pay with a credit card and show that you live here. HOWEVER, no vale la pena. I went yesterday to buy tickets to an event. Took my 45 minutes to save what I thought would be $3.00 US on each ticket. BUT their office converts the dollar amount to a unfavorable pesos amount--then adds 16% IVA and then converts it back on your credit card to which you are charged an international transaction fee. Sooooo the $25 dollar ticket with the 15% discount cost me $27.00 by the time it was over. If you as a local want to go to an event, save yourself time and hassle and just buy online. They were very pleasant at the office while I was waiting 45 minutes to save a couple of bucks!!!
