Día de los Muertos Celebration

Celebrate Day of the Dead with online activities, onsite altar showcase, Virtual Mercado, related events and programs. The Gardens’ annual celebration of the holiday includes both onsite and offsite/virtual offerings.

At the Gardens’ York Street location, view the altar showcase, Oct. 28 – Nov. 2. The showcase offers visitors a unique opportunity to explore the rich history and long-standing traditions of this beautiful celebration. 

Since we all can’t gather in person on the actual day, we invite you to join us in a virtual celebration of Denver Botanic Gardens’ observance of Día de los Muertos.

This traditional Mexican “Day of the Dead” celebration offers at-home fun for the whole family. Download coloring pages, learn how to make sugar skulls and shop our virtual mercado.
