Día De Los Muertos in Albuquerque’s Old Town

In this Día De Los Muertos in Albuquerque Old Town video, we walk through a day of tradition, art, and community honoring those who came before us. You’ll see handcrafted ofrendas (altars) glowing with candles and flowers, traditional dancers performing to mariachi and folklórico rhythms, and local artisans selling everything from sugar skulls to papel picado. We’ll learn about the meaning behind Día De Los Muertos — how it celebrates life, memory, and connection between generations — and how Albuquerque’s Old Town blends Indigenous, Mexican, and Southwestern influences into a uniquely local experience.
