The world of Mexican automotive culture is undergoing a quiet yet powerful evolution: events are no longer simple meet-ups—they are transforming into full sensory experiences. And within this new trend, Pastejé Raduno – Pacific Edition has emerged as the new standard.
An event that not only brought together hypercars and collectors, but that redefined how we relate to the automobile—as a piece of art, as a passport to a different way of traveling through Mexico.
Pastejé Raduno: Born With Its Own Identity
While the Pastejé Automotive Invitational has already become an international reference, the Pacific Raduno represents a fresh and elevated extension: a boutique event with limited attendance, designed for those who savor the road with the same passion as a wine with denomination of origin or a sunset over the ocean.
This first edition opened a new chapter: a route that blended the traditional elegance of Pastejé with the landscapes of western Mexico, where the ocean becomes the backdrop and the roads twist as if designed to test machines worth millions of dollars.
The Pacific Route: Luxury in Motion
The itinerary—which included stops in Tequila, Punta Mita, and the Pacific region—became a traveling showcase. Caravans of European hypercars, limited-edition supercars, and collector pieces set their own rhythm, creating scenes worthy of a global automotive commercial: engines echoing against cliffsides, perfect curves, and a community of enthusiasts who found in this raduno an exclusive and intimate space.
More than speed, the Pacific Raduno focused on the experience:
– Gastronomy crafted by world-class chefs
– Luxury accommodations such as Rosewood Mandarina in Punta Mita
– Tastings and social moments between collectors, drivers, chefs, and figures from the business and automotive worlds

A Growing Community
The value of the event wasn’t only in the vehicles, but in the people behind the wheel. The Pacific Raduno brought together individuals shaping the new DNA of luxury in Mexico: entrepreneurs, young leaders, collectors with curatorial vision, grand-route enthusiasts, families who see the automobile as legacy.
It wasn’t a massive gathering, but a select encounter that privileged closeness, genuine conversations, and shared passion.
Hypercars: The Silent Protagonists
Among the pieces that stole the spotlight were limited editions from Ferrari, Lamborghini, Porsche, and McLaren, as well as models from emerging hypercar brands that are rarely seen outside of Monterrey, Mexico City, or Scottsdale.
Instead of being displayed statically, these cars did what they were built to do: move. It’s on the road where their true essence is revealed. The Raduno allowed them to come alive—on highways, breathing in their natural habitat.
A New Benchmark for Premium Automotive Culture in Mexico
Pastejé Raduno – Pacific Edition was not just an event; it was a statement of intent. It represents the expansion of a brand that understands that true automotive luxury today is not about competition, but about connection; not about racing, but about crafting unforgettable experiences.
With this edition, Pastejé opens the door to a new generation of gatherings that connect Mexico to the great European radunos—such as Mille Miglia, Poltu Quatu or Concorso d’Eleganza—yet with an unmistakable and vibrant Mexican signature.
I believe that once you live an experience like this, it becomes impossible to leave behind. It is a unique fusion of adrenaline, camaraderie, friendships, and extraordinary individuals—cars included—representing the epitome of luxury and exclusivity. Together, these elements make being part of this adventure far more than joining a luxury supercar drive; it becomes an unforgettable experience, one worth telling and preserving for generations to come.
The intention is to continue expanding this spirit throughout other regions of Latin America, adapting it to countries such as Panama or Guatemala, where there is notable passion for these vehicles and where iconic routes already stand out, such as the rallies in Antigua or the legendary Pan-American Highway that connects Panama with Costa Rica.
