Nogales Chile reschedules Independence Day parade off Sept 11 after coup commemoration controversy

The Municipality of Nogales, Valparaíso, moved its Independence Day parade from September 11 to September 23 after public controversy over holding a celebration on the anniversary of the 1973 coup d'état. The decision follows local political pressure and reflects ongoing sensitivity around the date in Chile. The change is a local administrative action with no broader market or geopolitical implications.
