In November, the Memorial da América Latina will host another edition of the Fiesta de Día de Muertos. What’s new is that, in 2025, São Paulo residents will be able to enjoy two weekends of free attractions celebrating the best of Mexican culture.
The São Paulo festival is the largest of its kind in Brazil and the second largest in the world – second only to its home country, Mexico. It is inspired by the Mexican tradition of honoring the dead with flowers, food and music. So you can see musical performances, typical dances and food from the Latin American country – all without leaving São Paulo!
