In this installment of Mayor's Minute, Moreno Valley Mayor Yxstian Gutierrez talks about the annual Dia de los Muertos festival, which will be coming to our Civic Center Amphitheater on Friday, October 29.
Dia de los Muertos, or Day of the Dead, is a time-honored tradition celebrated in Mexico and the United States, where dearly departed loved ones are celebrated with music, food, dancing and the building of ofrendas, or altars that honor family and friends who have recently passed on.
This year's celebration will feature food vendors, craft tables, ballet folklórico, and noted Selena tribute band Dreaming of You!
Mayor Gutierrez and the Moreno Valley City Council can't wait to celebrate with you!
