When we were in Guanajuato, Mexico we made it a special effort to see the callejoneadas. In 1962 a group of young people decided to don old style Spanish Renaissance costumes and tour the streets and alley's (callejons) singing songs, drinking wine, and telling jokes. Since then, this activity takes place mostly on weekends. It is supported by the University of Guanajuato, which includes and organizes callejoneadas for the International Cervantino Festival. I could hear them coming up the alley and rushed out to catch them as they passed by.
