Day of the Dead

Are you looking for a unique way to celebrate and honour your loved ones who have passed on? On Sunday, 1 November 2026, Disco Psicodélico will present Día de los Muertos (Day of the Dead) at Where Else? in Margate. This family-friendly event is designed to bring people together to celebrate and pay tribute to those who are no longer with us.

The event will feature a variety of activities, including Latin music and traditional Mexican food. Attendees will also have the opportunity to participate in Lotería games, piñata, and children's book readings. Additionally, there will be arts and crafts available, allowing people to express their creativity and pay tribute to their loved ones in a unique and meaningful way.

A key part of the event will be the communal altar, where attendees are encouraged to bring photos, offerings, or notes to add to the display. This will provide a special way for people to honour and remember their loved ones, and to connect with others who are going through a similar experience. To add to the festive atmosphere, attendees are also encouraged to dress in traditional clothing or skeleton face paint.

The event is free to attend, although donations are appreciated. Some of the proceeds will go to the Margate Death Cafe, a support bereavement group that provides help and guidance to locals who are struggling to navigate grief. This adds an extra layer of meaning to the event, as it will not only be a celebration of loved ones but also a way to support those in need.

For those interested in attending, the event will take place on Sunday, 1 November 2026, at Where Else? in Margate. Tickets and details are available with the button beside this article, providing all the information you need to join in this special celebration.
