Anarchapulco is an annual anarcho-capitalist and voluntaryist conference held in Acapulco, Mexico. It was founded by Canadian-Dominican activist and entrepreneur Jeff Berwick in 2015. [1] The term is a portmanteau of anarchy and Acapulco.

The conference attracted increased attention and controversy after a member of the community, a fugitive from American drug charges, Shane Cress, [2] using the pseudonym John Galton, [3] [4] was shot and killed at his home in Acapulco. [5]
