Día de los Muertos Festival

Other Arts and Culture

What’s Happening?

A fall tradition for many Kansas City families, the Día de los Muertos (or Day of the Dead) festival commemorates the richness and beauty of Latin American cultures through art activities, entertainment, and traditional cuisine.  

Additionally, every festival features an innovative altar installation created in collaboration with local artists, Mattie Rhodes Center, and community and school groups. The altar is on display several days prior to and after the Día de los Muertos festival. Guests are invited to leave a tribute to a loved one who has passed away.
