The Ministerio de Cultura y Deportes de Guatemala used its official X account on November 6, 2025, to promote cultural activities and public services in the country. The posts highlighted an ongoing theater season for children, a traditional weaving workshop in Salamá, and a digital platform to streamline event permits.

In a tweet published at 20:20 UTC, the ministry announced, "#Guatemala | ¡Teatro para los pequeños! Recuerda que estamos en la temporada de presentaciones de la obra infantil “Tierra de leyenda” y esta noche, a las 19:00 horas, habilitaremos la boletería gratuita. Aforo para 300 personas. #ElPuebloDignoEsPrimero https://t.co/o9deVKO4oJ". The message noted that tickets for the children's play "Tierra de leyenda" would be available free of charge with a capacity for 300 attendees.

Later that evening at 21:00 UTC, another post described efforts to preserve indigenous culture in Baja Verapaz. The ministry wrote, "#BajaVerapaz | En Salamá se lleva a cabo el taller de tejeduría “Hilando memoria colectiva del pueblo Maya Achí”, un espacio dedicado a preservar y fortalecer los saberes ancestrales que dan identidad a la comunidad. #ElPuebloDignoEsPrimero https://t.co/XQjE0WWflr".

At 21:24 UTC on the same day, the ministry promoted its digital service for organizing public events: "¿Quieres realizar un evento público? Con la Ventanilla Ágil puedes obtener los permisos de forma fácil, para llevarlo a cabo. Crea tu cuenta aquí https://t.co/tF1R6hfQBW #ElPuebloDignoEsPrimero https://t.co/6ifEawJzJq".
