Dia de los Muertos

Saturday 2nd November 2024

A day to celebrate Mexican culture. From 12 noon the Free House will be decorated with Mexican ornaments, including an altar, where people can place photos or momentoes of passed loved ones, as is custom during the celebration of the Day of the Dead in Mexico.

The day is a joyful remembrance of those who have passed, and it will include music, face painting for the kids, there will be Mexican food for sale, and from 2:30pm there will be a chill sauce competition, where professional and amateur chefs will have their best chilli sauce judged by an expert panel.

Come dressed up and join the celebration!
