The Police Day Parade in Mexico City is part of initiatives to acknowledge the dedication of police officers in protecting residents. Scheduled for Sunday, December 21, the procession will begin at 08:30 from the Estela de Luz on Paseo de la Reforma and end at the Monumento a la Revolución. Contingents from the CDMX police will participate, emphasizing their role in daily security.
To ensure smooth operations and safety, the Secretaría de Seguridad Ciudadana will deploy a special mobility and security plan. This will involve temporary closures of major thoroughfares, such as Paseo de la Reforma, Avenida Chapultepec, Circuito Interior, and Eje Central Lázaro Cárdenas. Drivers planning routes near these areas amid holiday festivities should opt for alternatives like Rivera de San Cosme, Circuito Bicentenario, and Insurgentes to bypass delays.
In addition to the parade, the Secretaría de Seguridad Ciudadana held a raffle to celebrate the officers, offering prizes including cars, screens, tablets, and video game consoles like Xbox. An official document lists the winners, who must collect their items Monday through Friday from 09:00 to 20:00 at the Subdirección de Profesionalización de Personal Policial y de Seguridad y Custodia. Required documents include the SSC CDMX credential, pay receipt for the second half of November 2025, proof of address, and tax regime certificate. Participants can check eligibility using their employee number.
The event highlights support for police forces amid heightened activity in the capital during the December season.
