Día de los Muertos (or Day of the Dead) is a holiday that is primarily celebrated in Mexico and other parts of Latin America. It’s a tradition that combines Indigenous and Spanish Catholic customs and is typically observed on November 1st and 2nd. The holiday is all about honoring deceased loved ones and is often marked by elaborate altars, colorful decorations, and festive gatherings.
While Día de los Muertos has its roots in Mexico, the holiday has become increasingly popular in other parts of the world, including Canada, with people celebrating it as a way to remember and honor their own ancestors and loved ones who have passed away.
