Day of the Dead Fiesta Melbourne
As the Day of the Dead draws near, it's a touching reminder to treasure the memories of our departed friends and loved ones. It's a celebration of their lives and a moment to reflect on the value of our own.
So, let's come together in the true spirit of Mexico and celebrate!
These tickets will surely go fast, so don't delay – secure yours ASAP!
Tickets on sale NOW!
Come down and celebrate Mexican Day of the Dead with us at The Collingwood Town Hall!
This is an authentic Mexican event, carefully put together by Mexicans, featuring Mexican performers. We deeply value and take immense pride in our cultural roots, and we're thrilled to share them with all who join us.
While we wholeheartedly appreciate how diverse cultures embrace our celebrations (and we enthusiastically participate in theirs), if you're looking for an unfiltered, genuine experience, this is the one event you absolutely must not miss.
Get ready to immerse yourself in the vibrant and rich culture of Mexico with two incredible shows:
Family Show (1:30pm):
Join us for a family-friendly fiesta featuring an Aztec Shaman welcoming you and doing a cleansing to get rid of the bad spirits, opening ceremony in Aztec language, traditional altar, festive piñatas, mouth-watering tacos, and, of course, over 10 masked luchadores. Expect a show packed with acrobatics, action, and a pinch of comedy that'll keep the entire family entertained!
Adult Show (7pm):
The party doesn't stop until the break of dawn, or until the cops come for us, whichever comes first - Mexican style, chingao!
Dress in your finest Day of the Dead attire and makeup (it's a costume celebration after all, with a BIG prize: -$500 Dollars not Pesos for the winner!) and prepare for a night filled with Mexican and Latin DJs, live music including MARIACHI, a lively photo booth, a traditional Altar, our unique, spectacular & only Mexican Wrestling show and an Aztec Shaman ready to cleanse away those bad spirits with an Aztec ceremony in Nahualt of course! (language of the Aztecs)
Tequila VIP Experience
Sip to THE absolute best, top shelf drinks that Señor Fantastico curated himself putting his liver under a lot of pressure for this event just to get an amazing selection for you) in a Tequila Master-class where we will talk about all things tequila and agave distillates, Aztec mythology, Mexican geography, the agave industry plus the tradition of the Day of the Dead!
