ABOUT THE DIA DE LOS MUERTOS STREET FESTIVAL

Now in its 17th year, the Día De Los Muertos Street Festival has become one of Corpus Christi’s most popular events. It has been recognized as a top Dia De Los Muertos Celebration in the United States. The street festival has also been voted the best festival in The Bend Magazine’s Local’s List for eight years running from 2016 to 2024. 

The event’s goals are to celebrate and honor the rich cultural heritage of Mexico and South Texas, educate and unite the community, draw tourists and residents to downtown Corpus Christi, and promote the city. As Corpus Christi’s most anticipated fall event, the Día De Los Muertos Street Festival has brought life, music, and culture into the downtown community since 2008.

The 2024 Día De Los Muertos Street Festival will be held on Saturday, October 26, from 3 p.m. to midnight. They will present live entertainment on three stages: Latin-influenced rock & pop music, Mariachis, Ballet Folklorico and cultural dancers, youth performers, local DJs, and regional up-and-coming bands. The event also includes an Hecho a Mano Art Expo, Kids’ Activities, Ofrenda display in The Ward Building, art exhibitions and demonstrations, food, drinks and more

Youth Art Exhibit

K Space Contemporary will host a fine art exhibit of themed works, a Youth Art Exhibit, and a youth piñata contest for K-12 groups called Extravagancia de Piñatas.
