Day of the Dead Tacos n Margaritas Bar Crawl

Buen Día de Muertos!

There is time to be good and to be bad. But this time, good times for all will be bad. Join us for a bar crawl as we celebrate the Day of the Dead (a celebration of life). Day of the Dead is portrayed as a holiday of joyful celebration rather than mourning. These celebrations can take a humorous tone, as celebrants remember funny events and anecdotes about the departed.
