What is Day of the Dead?
Day of the Dead, celebrated in Mexico on November 1 and 2, welcomes the souls of loved ones back for a brief visit. Families build ofrendas, home altars with photos, candles, marigolds, sugar skulls, pan de muerto and the favourite food and drink of the departed, and spend time at decorated graves. Blending Indigenous and Catholic traditions, the celebration was added to UNESCO's list of the Intangible Cultural Heritage of Humanity in 2008.
How to celebrate
Mark the day with a poster made in Dayfeed — pick your favourite photo as the background, share it to your story or group chat, and set a reminder so you never miss it next year.
