Day Of The Dead Mexico. One of the most expected celebrations of day of the dead 2019 is the great parade. Mexico's day of the dead celebration this weekend won't be the same in a year so marked by death, in a country where more than 90,000 people have died of the new coronavirus.
I visited the 2019 day of the dead in mexico city. Here’s how to make sure you get the best view! It is a holiday that focuses on remembering family members and friends who have passed away.
Day of the dead (known as día de muertos in spanish) is celebrated in mexico between october 31st and november 2nd.
It’s when maya families welcome the souls of lost children. Day of the dead festivities typically begin in mexico city on the saturday before dia de los muertos, as the parade rolls through the capital. I was a little concerned about cdmx being disconnected from the roots of the celebration, but was overall not disappointed. Traditionally, november 1st honors deceased children and november 2nd honors deceased adults.
