Día de los Muertos or Day of the Dead, a long standing Latino holiday with indigenous roots dating back to Aztec times, has taken its place in mainstream culture boasting festivities worldwide.
“Día de los Muertos transcends the once a year celebration. It’s a way to honor the dead… celebrate the living,” said Rodríguez, Visionary Cultural Arts Advocate and Creator of MARIACHI USA, a festival that achieved its 25 year milestone at the legendary Hollywood Bowl this year.
Though traditions may slightly differ among cultures, the holiday (typically taking place from Oct.31-Nov. 2) commemorates the dead and brings families together in enjoyment of life.
