For 20 years, the Festival of Life and Death has brought together the traditions, flavours, music and stories that make Mexico’s Day of the Dead celebrations so extraordinary.

In Mexico, memories are not kept in silence — they are sung, cooked, danced, told and shared.

This year, the festival celebrates its 20th edition, returning to its roots while welcoming Guanajuato as its special guest state — a destination where history lives through its colourful streets, tunnels, legends, traditional flavours and generations of local craftsmanship.

Experience the Celebration at Xcaret Park

During the festival, Xcaret Park transforms into a vibrant celebration of Mexican culture and tradition.

Throughout its plazas, pathways and unique settings, your clients can discover a programme filled with experiences that connect the present with traditions passed down through generations.

Expect an unforgettable celebration featuring traditional altars, live performances, concerts, dance, workshops, local crafts and Mexican gastronomy — all coming together to honour the memories and stories that remain alive.

The Celebration Continues at Hoteles Xcaret

The spirit of the Festival of Life and Death also extends to Hoteles Xcaret, where Mexican culture, gastronomy and hospitality come together as part of the celebration.

For clients staying during these special dates, it is an opportunity to experience one of Mexico’s most meaningful traditions while enjoying everything that makes a stay at Hoteles Xcaret truly unique.
