2019 Events:
September 12 - 14, 2019: Three day international mezcal event in Oaxaca (I don't know anything about the event, but because it is fashioned as a press release, I thought I should just mention it; it is during low tourist season perhaps as a way to stimulate visitors to Oaxaca, but first came across my desk August 8, rather short notice to generate the attendance it seeks. Anyone with knowledge of it can email me to enlighten): https://www.prnewswire.com/news-releases/oaxaca-hosts-historic-vive-mezcal-2019-international-forum-300898944.html
