Every year in the Magical Town of Jerez, Zacatecas has been held since 1824 a festivity that brings together a large number of visitors. This event is the beginning of the celebrations of the Spring Fair which has been declared Intangible Cultural Heritage of the State. This research aims to reveal the perception of women during their daily lives and this celebration. For this year's issue it received the number of more than 1,500 horsemen which means a significant change in daily life. For this year, despite having been officially canceled, it was carried out generating the visit of 55 thousand people and 821 riders. It is qualitative research applying semi-structured interviews in situ for women users of public space in three main squares of the protected polygon in the Historic Center of the municipality, in two different times: in everyday life and during the aforementioned holiday. As a result, it was identified that in the municipal seat there is an identity of its own that has been preserved and transmitted from generation to generation, including migrants who return every year to celebrate this celebration, in which women are the main promoters of it, however, the celebration is far from what it was, so today they are the ones who begin to put a barrier between what are the traditions and the way in which the Sabbath of Glory is carried out. Is necessary to involve the community in some celebrations cause it is who has to celebrate their festivity.
