The Pumapungo Museum and Archaeological Park will temporarily close for renovation work across its museum, theater, and park areas. The project aims to upgrade the infrastructure and enhance the overall visitor experience.

Key improvements include updates to permanent and temporary exhibits, better access, and the integration of new technologies.

The closure began on September 9, 2024, with plans to reopen in early December.

During this period, the Archaeological Site and the Ethnobotanical Park will remain open, offering virtual tours and alternative activities for visitors.

Events like the International Puppet Festival “TitiriCuenca” (September 24–28) and “World Stages” in October will still be held at the Pumapungo Theater as scheduled.
