About this Event
Day of the Dead Fiesta
Saturday 26th October
As the Day of the Dead draws near, it's a touching reminder to treasure the memories of our departed friends and loved ones. It's a celebration of their lives and a moment to reflect on the value of our own.
So, let's come together in the true spirit of Mexico and celebrate!
These tickets will surely go fast, so don't delay – secure yours ASAP!
Come down and celebrate Mexican Day of the Dead with us at The Collingwood Town Hall!
This is an authentic Mexican event, carefully put together by Mexicans, featuring Mexican performers. We deeply value and take immense pride in our cultural roots, and we're thrilled to share them with all who join us.
While we wholeheartedly appreciate how diverse cultures embrace our celebrations (and we enthusiastically participate in theirs), if you're looking for an unfiltered, genuine experience, this is the one event you absolutely must not miss.
ADULT SHOW (7pm)
The party doesn't stop until the break of dawn, or until the cops come for us, whichever comes first - Mexican style, chingao!
Dress in your finest Day of the Dead attire and makeup (it's a costume celebration after all, with a BIG prize: -$500 Dollars not Pesos for the winner!) and prepare for a night filled with Mexican and Latin DJs, live music including MARIACHI, a lively photo booth, a traditional Altar and an Aztec Shaman ready to cleanse away those bad spirits.
With the unique, the spectacular, the one and only Lucha Fantastica, Mexican Wrestling show in Australia followed by our infamous Tequila fiesta with special guests: Mexbourne Dance Club (Mexican folk dance) doing an amazing opening ceremony with our Shaman, all dressed in the traditional Aztec atires and in Aztec language.
If that was not enough, join our VIP Tequila Experience with a very special guest talking about all things Mexican, agave distillates (tequila and mezcal) and of course the tradition of the Day of the Dead Celebration.
