DAY OF THE DEAD: Unpacking Mexico's Favorite Traditional Celebration

As many of you know Día de los Muertos — or Day of the Dead — is becoming more and more popular not only here in Mexico but all around the world. It’s colorful it’s fun it’s beautiful to look at… but here’s the thing: so many people are celebrating it without really understanding where it comes from or the deep meaning behind it.

And that’s what this session is all about.

Yes you can enjoy the parades the costumes and the sugar skulls. But if you want to truly connect with this tradition to understand why it exists how it began and the moving way in which music rituals and stories help us honor our departed loved ones — then this is the perfect opportunity.

I’ll take you on a journey through melodies customs and heartfelt narratives that reveal the soul of Día de los Muertos all in a comfortable air-conditioned setting where you can just sit back and enjoy.

So — if you’ve ever wanted to go beyond the surface and really appreciate the beauty and meaning of this incredible tradition I hope you’ll join me.

I look forward to seeing you there!
