I attended a play at Mesa Arts Center. Due to an incredible stroke of luck, the Dia de los Muertos…read moreFestival was happening right next to the venue, so I checked it out after the show. There are a few things I look for in a festival and this one crosses off all of the boxes. First, ease of parking. There is plenty of free parking on the street surrounding the festival. I found a spot a few minutes away by foot without much effort. Second, free admission. This is the case with this festival. Third, entertainment. I was there for about an hour and some change and saw three different performances: singing, dancing, and a cultural ritual. I have always been fascinated by Dia de los Muertos, a celebration of death, so it was so cool to see this holiday celebrated through song, dance, and ritual. Not to mention the beautiful outfits! Awesome to take part in this from a cultural perspective. Fourth, the food. Since I had dinner plans, I only wanted a snack. I hit pay dirt with a churro, one of my favorite desserts and one that I haven't had in quite a while. If you're looking for something a little more hearty than dessert, there were 15 or so food trucks/food stands. A nice selection that I'll definitely check out the next time I attend this festival. Fifth, the beverages. There were a good number of options, both alcoholic and non-alcoholic. I went with a cantaloupe agua fresca for $5, which I found reasonably priced for the size (it was large) and the venue (a festival). Beyond all that I mentioned above, there were a ton of vendors selling everything under the sun including art, clothing, pottery, candles, souvenirs, and more. There also wasn't a long line anywhere I went. The beauty of a festival is learning about different cultures. I came away from this festival with that appreciation. And also an appreciation for how well planned and well run this event is.

I tried to check in to no avail. I was told I was too far away even though I was right there. In…read moreany event, this Day of the Dead festival is so much fun. A ton of vendors selling their wares, face painting, clothing, a large food court, a magnificent alter, an alter contest and entertainment all through the day. You could get Katrina painting on your face and black veils. We really enjoy seeing the culture and practices. Free street and lot parking
