Dog Events in Mexico City, MX

Known locally as “El Gran Desfile de Día de Muertos,” the Day of the Dead parade in Mexico City has become a major event, which precedes the actual holiday. The parade displays some of the beautiful ancestral traditions of Day of the Dead, complete with large skeleton puppets, moving altars, alebrijes traditional dancers, and more. The parade begins at Puerta de los Leones (entrance to Chapultepec Park), then travels up Av. Paseo de la Reforma, and ends at the Zocalo. It is advised to arrive as early as possible as millions of people attend each year.

Throughout Mexico City, there are candlelit cemeteries to wander through for an intimate experience of this ancestral tradition. There will also be many big and festive activities, such as parades and concerts.
