Perguntas Frequentes
Day of the Dead (Día de los Muertos) is celebrated on November 1 and 2 each year. November 1 is dedicated to deceased children (Día de los Inocentes), and November 2 honors deceased adults, aligning with the Catholic feasts of All Saints' Day and All Souls' Day.
Day of the Dead is a Mexican tradition that honors deceased loved ones through joyful remembrance. Families create elaborate altars (ofrendas) adorned with the deceased's photographs, favorite foods, marigolds, and personal belongings. It reflects indigenous Aztec traditions blended with Spanish Catholic influence.
Day of the Dead is primarily celebrated in Mexico and among Mexican communities in the United States. Similar traditions exist in Guatemala, Honduras, El Salvador, Colombia, Ecuador, Bolivia, and other Latin American countries. UNESCO recognized it as an Intangible Cultural Heritage of Humanity in 2008.
Day of the Dead is not a formal public holiday in Mexico (businesses and government offices remain open), but November 2 (All Souls' Day) is an important cultural observance. In some Mexican states and municipalities, local events and community gatherings are organized.
Traditions include building ofrendas (altars) with marigolds, sugar skulls (calaveras), candles, food, and photographs of deceased relatives to welcome their spirits. Families visit cemeteries to clean and decorate graves, share meals, tell stories, and sometimes spend the night. Pan de muerto (bread of the dead) and sugar skulls are traditional foods.
