My calendar says it's Dec. 12th

That is correct.  Here is more information and confirmation of date:

Celebrate Our Lady of Guadalupe Day

Public celebrations, or fiestas, are held in honor of Mary, the Virgin of Guadalupe, on December 12. Catholics from across Mexico and other countries pay pilgrimage to see an image of Mary (Virgen Morena), believed to be authentic, in the Basilica of Guadalupe in Mexico City. Children are dressed in traditional costumes and are blessed in churches. Thousands of people come to church to pray.

What's Open or Closed?

Our Lady of Guadalupe Day is not a federal public holiday Mexico, but it is a religious festival, so many streets, roads, and transport providers are busy on December 12. It is an optional holiday for some workers and a holiday for banks and other financial sector organizations. People intending on travelling via public transport in Mexico should check with public transit authorities on any timetable or route changes

yes it is the 12 and fireworks start 9 days before so figure this one out.  It starts on the 3rd and ends on the 12th. Actually I maybe off, I remember one year thinking we would be getting a 3 day break but December is like The virgin s month here so there were cohetes on the first as well.. We live near the Guadalupe church so for sure there will be no break for us, just fewer cohetes but bad music every morning for sure...
