Named after the Campus Martius in Rome, this military field is still administered by the Secretariat of National Defense and used for government ceremonies, equestrian competitions, and large-scale public events. The sprawling green space next to the National Auditorium hosts everything from the Longines Champions Cup equestrian tournament to music festivals, Oktoberfest celebrations, and food festivals like Fogones de México.
The grounds include a military casino and restaurant, plus ample space for outdoor gatherings that never feel cramped. Parking fills quickly during events, so arriving early or taking the metro is your best bet.
