There’s a sensational culinary scene, luxury hotels and resorts, and that picturesque aesthetic that appears as if conjured up from a fairy tale. San Miguel de Allende is here to stay as one of the premier places to post up on holiday across the whole of Mexico, even while lacking the beachfront that so many stateside travelers prioritize when heading to the country. But has it also emerged in full as a world class destination and one of Mexico’s leading tourism draws? No doubt about it. Is San Miguel still an almost impossibly charming little village? Yes. Yet, in some ways, this raucous celebration signals an emergence, an elevation to a higher plane for the quaint commune already situated at a lofty perch of some 6,233 feet while resting atop such aforementioned lists and pulling in a range of additional accolades. It’s been honored as the “world’s best small city” by Condé Nast Traveler three years running, and its historic city center is a UNESCO World Heritage Site. Clad in a black suit paired with a black dress shirt, Mauricio Trejo, the town’s municipal president, kicked off the night as dozens of bar teams awaited their ranking fates, surrounded by assorted friends and hangers-on, along with social media stars and scribes, either of whom could also be described as friends and or hangers-on. Hundreds of revelers from the international bar community gathered in San Miguel de Allende in early May for the North America’s 50 Best Bars 2023 awards ceremony.
