Day of the Dead in Ajijic
In Ajijic, the Day of the Dead is a celebration full of life, art, and tradition, where the community comes together to honor the memory of their loved ones.
Every November 1st and 2nd, the town bursts with color, music, and flowers during the Axixic Vive Festival, which features altars, dance, theater, and the iconic Day of the Dead Parade, where catrinas and catrines walk through the streets surrounded by festive melodies and the applause of the crowd.
Blending pre-Hispanic roots with Ajijic’s artistic spirit, this celebration—held under the theme “The Lake Is Our Tradition”—turns remembrance into a living work of art that celebrates life and death in perfect harmony.
