Anthony, N.M. – The La Union Maze announced that its 27th fall season will run from Sept. 26 through Nov. 8, featuring a new design that honors New Mexico’s agricultural heritage. The 13‑acre maze will showcase iconic state symbols such as chile peppers and the roadrunner, highlighting the crops, ranches and traditions that have shaped local communities.
Family‑focused outdoor experience
According to La Union, the maze is more than a puzzle; it provides families an opportunity to spend time outdoors, learn where their food comes from, and enjoy the sights and sounds of a New Mexico farm in the fall. The organization emphasized that the event aligns with traditional family values by encouraging intergenerational bonding and appreciation for the land.
Ticket pricing and discounts
Ticket prices vary by day, with higher rates on expected‑busy dates. The maze recommends purchasing tickets online for the best price. Children under two years old and adults over 75 receive free admission. Active military members, military children ages 2‑5, and seniors ages 65‑75 qualify for a 15% discount at the gate with valid ID. During opening weekend, La Union will offer a 50% discount to teachers, military personnel, veterans and first responders.
Partnerships and special events
This season, La Union announced a partnership with GECU, which will sponsor several maze activities. The season will conclude on Saturday, Nov. 7, with a fireworks and drone show before the maze closes on Nov. 8.
Practical information
The maze does not accept cash, so visitors should be prepared to pay with credit or debit cards. For the most up‑to‑date pricing and schedule, readers are encouraged to visit the La Union website.
With its focus on agriculture, family time, and community celebration, the La Union Maze offers a seasonal attraction that reflects the values of Anthony’s residents and the broader New Mexico region.
