The state of New Mexico, one of America’s youngest states, celebrates 100 years of statehood in 2012 with events and festivals all year long. In Albuquerque, a variety of events and festivals will honor the state’s landmark occasion.
During New Mexico’s Centennial celebration in 2012, Albuquerque events honor the rich history of our area (Albuquerque was founded in 1706) and the exciting prospects for the future. As Albuquerque’s mayor Richard J. Berry puts it, you can “experience a place where the modern city skyline is set against the backdrop of the ancient cultures of the Southwest.”
