Share:

Experience the vibrant traditions of Mexican, Mexican American, and LatinX communities at the 22nd Annual Celebraciones de la Gente! Join us for a weekend filled with color, culture, and celebration. Held in partnership with Flagstaff Nuestras Raíces, Celebraciones honors the spirit of Día de los Muertos with heartfelt remembrances and joyful festivities.

Enjoy cultural dances and music as you explore the brightly adorned ofrendas in the Jaime Major Golightly Courtyard, each a stunning display of love and memory. Savor delicious traditional foods and deepen your understanding of Dia de los Muertos through cultural presentations. Mariachi Agave from Tucson and Ballet Folklorico de Colores of Flagstaff will bring distinctive sounds and movement to the celebration. Children will delight in the creativity of sugar skull decorating and face painting.

As the sun sets on Saturday, the courtyard transforms into a magical scene for Courtyard After Dark. Witness the glowing ofrendas under the night sky, indulge in sweet treats and beverages, and soak in the rich atmosphere.

Don’t miss this premier fall festival. Invite your friends and family, from this world and the next!

Celebraciones tickets are available at the door, good for the entire weekend, and include admission to the Museum.
$20 General Admission, $10 MNA members, $8 youth, kids 9 and under free.
