Dia De Los Muertos #9 is around the corner!!Like each year, Run bookings and De Centrale bring to Ghent the now 9th edition of this lovely Mexican tradition. A deep-rooted heart-warming tradition in which life and death are not conceived without each other and death becomes a celebration of the lives of the loved ones who left us.
You get to experience an evening full of culture, music, food, colours, scents and flavours that celebrate the ancestral traditions of one of the richest cultures in Latin America.
In this edition we are giving it a twist by having a musical guest to join the celebration: Stevo Tambiere is funeral musician who travels the North of Ghana on his motorcycle to pay tribute to the deceased, helping family members say goodbye to their loved one. Stevo's concert is preceded by LONG LIVE THE DEAD!, a musical road movie that will be projected before.
The Day of the Dead is a celebration of life, teaching people to enjoy every moment and not fear death. We do not mourn the deceased, we celebrate with them since for us they are still present. It is a celebration for them and with them.
Come enjoy this evening with us, bring your best costume, be part of this celebration and have a taste of this very special night
