Despertar Contigo

Despertar Contigo Spanish-language soap opera filming locally

The cast and crew of the Spanish-language soap opera, Despertar Contigo, are currently in the Riviera Nayarit taping its gorgeous landscapes. So far, producer Pedro Damián has chosen Sayulita and Nuevo Vallarta for his latest scenes.

The actors and crew of this comedic show arrived on May 28th and commenced filming in Puerto Vallarta before they arrived in the Riviera Nayarit. They will remain in Mexico’s Pacific Treasure working for the show until June 12th.

The Public Relations desk of the Riviera Nayarit Convention and Visitors Bureau (CVB) helped with the location scouting, securing filming permits and the support of security and transit authorities.

“We want our coastal towns to be the topic of conversation and to be seen in as many places as possible,” stated Marc Murphy, Managing Director of the Riviera Nayarit Convention and Visitors Bureau. “The Riviera Nayarit is turning heads and that’s the main objective of our Public Relations efforts. The concept of this soap opera was a great match for Sayulita.”

Pedro Damián is considered one of Televisa’s top producers, especially with the YA (Young Adult) scripts that have been so successful on national television programming. Despertar Contigo is being transmitted across Mexico during primetime, offering excellent exposure to the region.
