Papel picado, marigolds, music and memories! The community is invited to CityPlace Doral’s Fourth Annual Day of the Dead “Día de los Muertos” Celebration on Saturday, November 1, from 6 to 9pm at the Fountain Plaza.

Dia de los Muertos is believed to be the one day of the year that the souls of past ancestors reunite with the living. Starting Monday, Oct. 20, CityPlace Doral will be vibrantly decorated with colorful Dia de Los Muertos-themed décor through Nov. 3, recognizing this culturally rich Latin American tradition. CityPlace Doral will come alive with vibrant colors, beautiful floral installations and unique photo opportunities that will blend the traditional Día de los Muertos decorations, including Papel picado, wooden calaveras (sugar skulls), agave pottery and Marigolds. Deeply rooted in tradition, the decorations and colors hold rich cultural significance and pay homage to ancient heritage.

The main Day of the Dead event will take place on Saturday, Nov. 1, from 6 to 9 p.m. Guests will celebrate life with a center-wide processional with performances by folkloric dancers, stilt walkers, mariachis and oversized calavera and Catrina puppets. The Baila Conmigo Kids Dance School will host a special youth performance.
