What to expect: a parade, live music, folkloric dancing, delicious food, local artisans and vendors, and family activities — plus the breathtaking community altar. Bring a photo of a loved one to place on the altar and honor them.

About the day: Día de los Muertos, celebrated November 1–2, is a Mexican tradition with roots in indigenous Aztec rituals blended with the Catholic All Saints and All Souls days. Families build ofrendas — altars with photos, candles, marigold flowers called cempasúchil, pan de muerto, and a loved one's favorite foods — believing their spirits return to visit. It's a joyful celebration of life and memory, and UNESCO has recognized it as an Intangible Cultural Heritage of Humanity.
