Fiesta de Día de Muertos: Eröffnung der Ofrenda

In the organizer's words:

The ofrenda, an exuberantly decorated altar measuring around 40 square meters, is the focal point of the Mexican festival of the dead. After the ceremonial opening, it is decorated with flowers, candles, handicrafts, fruit, cakes, sweets, soft drinks, schnapps, cigarettes - gifts for the deceased.

You, as a visitor, are also cordially invited to bring gifts such as photos or candles for your deceased loved ones. The altar grows over the course of the festival and fills up with memorabilia.

The opening and closing ceremonies are performed each day of the festival using traditional rhythm instruments such as rattles, bells and shells to bid farewell to the deceased.
