Casa Círculo Cultural and the San Mateo County History Museum in collaboration with the Redwood City Parks & Arts Foundation are proud to bring to Redwood City a Día de los Muertos Celebration.
The 15th annual Day of the Dead Celebration is in downtown Redwood City’s Courthouse Square located at 2200 Broadway between Hamilton Street and Middlefield Road.
This year’s theme draws from Rivera’s depiction of death in Mexican history, symbolized most prominently by La Catrina. Originally an etching by José Guadalupe Posada, La Catrina represents the idea that death is a universal equalizer, regardless of social status. In Rivera’s mural, she stands elegantly dressed, reflecting the Día de los Muertos tradition, where death is honored as an integral part of life’s cycle. The event will explore this interplay between life and death, deeply embedded in the Mexican cultural and social fabric.
There will be exhibitors, food vendors, performers, and a variety of family-friendly cultural events and activities that revolve around the day's traditional significance, including an altar festival contest.
For more information on the event, becoming a sponsor, volunteer, or to enter the altar contest visit the ticket link.

Please note:
Outdoor activities begin at 3 p.m. and go to 8:30 p.m
Activities inside the Museum begin at 4 p.m. and go until 8 p.m
