Description:

From Annual Dia de los Muertos Festival Website:

The Dia de los Muertos Street Festival, organized by K Space Contemporary and Axis Tattoo, has become one of the most popular events in Corpus Christi. Our Hecho-a-Mano Art Expo is a main attraction of the event. The Corpus Christi Dia de los Muertos Festival has gained national attention as it has been listed in multiple Top 10 lists of Dia de los Muertos Celebrations in the US and Texas, and voted Best Festival (2016, 2017, 2018) in The Bend Magazines Locals List.

A national holiday in Mexico, Dia de los Muertos is a holiday when deceased friends and family members are remembered, honored and celebrated. It is a poignant time, both solemn and joyous, with colorful traditions, pageantry, and whimsy despite the sobering subject. Our festival pays tribute to this tradition.

The Dia de los Muertos Festival offers 3 stages with live music and dance, both traditional and contemporary, made-by-hand arts and crafts expo, fine art exhibition and demonstrations, interactive artworks and activities, and Lucha Libre wrestling entertainment. Educational components include workshops, K-12 piata contest, a Kids Corner with crafts and activities, and a community altar display where visitors may pay homage to a loved one of their own.

The Dia de los Muertos Festival is designed to attract locals and tourists to downtown Corpus Christi, to educate and unite our community, while celebrating the rich cultural heritage of Mexico and South Texas. We invite all to be a part of this amazing cultural festival!
