Dia de los Muertos 2023

November 1

November 1, 2023 @ 5:00 pm - 8:00 pm

5:00pm - 8:00pm

Join Elgin, Texas for this family-friendly Dia de los Muertos or Day of the Dead, a traditional celebration in Mexico and Latin America, celebrating life and death where mourning is exchanged for celebration. Because it is believed the dead would be offended by grieving and sadness, the festivals are full of color, music, art, food, fragrance, and laughter. It is a time to celebrate the enduring love of family, those here and those before us.

Learn more about Day of the Dead, make sugar skulls at Elgin Public Library, enjoy mariachis, Ballet Folklorico, and other performers! Traditional family altars will be on display at The Clever Tiger. There will be costumed walking parades, food vendors, games, and more throughout the evening!
