The Day of the Dead is an important Mexican holiday celebrated on November 1st, which merges pre-Columbian beliefs, and modern Catholicism by honoring Mexico’s fallen ancestors. The Day of the Dead Festival is a key festival in Cabo San Lucas and through the nation. Families and loved ones pay their respects by creating spectacular altars that are elaborately decorated with photos, candles and food offerings. The altars are then displayed in the towns main square of Plaza Amelia Wilkes (Cabo San Lucas), where the best decorated alter is granted a prize.
