About this concert
Join us on November 2nd/3rd for MECA's 19th Annual Día de los Muertos (Day of the Dead) Festival, a FREE community celebration of Latin American folk art traditions that commemorate family and ancestry! Día de los Muertos is a culmination of pre-Colombian heritage and Catholic influence honoring the souls of the dead in a lively, cheerful celebration.
MECA’s Día de los Muertos celebration has flourished into a two day festival boasting a variety of traditional foods from the Americas, folk and fine arts, and three performance stages.
Join us for performances by acts like MECA Ballet Folklorico, Tres En Punto, Los Guerreros De La Musica / LGM, Solero Flamenco, and for the first time ever, Jilgueros de Altamira from Tamaulipas, Mexico!
Saturday's schedule includes a special short film showcase presented by the Houston Latino Film Festival. Experience a curated collection of short films from around the world featuring themes celebrated during Día de los Muertos!
On both days, enjoy a variety of delicious food and drink: tacos al carbon, mole, huaraches, aguas frescas, pupusas, corn in a cup, turkey legs, funnel cakes, pan de muerto, and more.
