Another possible fix is using ugettext or ugettext_lazy instead of gettext or gettext_lazy if your’re using Python 2 and Django <=1.11 as was suggested here: Django Translation UnicodeDecodeError

Please check that you have a header like this, in the po file:

msgid ""
msgstr ""
"Project-Id-Version: 1.0.0\n"
"Report-Msgid-Bugs-To: \n"
"POT-Creation-Date: 2013-10-04 13:06-0500\n"
"PO-Revision-Date: YEAR-MO-DA HO:MI+ZONE\n"
"Last-Translator: XXXXX\n"
"Language-Team: Es XXXX\n"
"Language: Es\n"
"MIME-Version: 1.0\n"
"Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8\n"
"Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit\n"
"Plural-Forms: nplurals=2; plural=(n != 1);\n"

This line is very important:

"Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8\n"
