why is it so hard to contact any one from the website. trying to get info on Belen matanza that i believe is schedule for the 28th. where do you get tickets.
The matanza is this Saturday, Jan 29, 6:30 a – 3:00p. You can get your tickets when you arrive. Have fun, dress in layers, and eat lots!!!!
Any way to get a physical address for mapquest purposes? Or a phone number with directions?
I don’t have the physical address but if you are coming from from 1-25 you will take the first Belen exit if headed south towards Socorro and the third Belen exit if headed north toward Albuquerque. Either way drive about 1/2 mile up the main exit road, past Taco Bell- it’s the next main lot after Taco Bell- across from Wal Mart. Super easy to find. You’ll see a million people going in and out of Wal mart trying to find parking : )
