9 reviews of Day of the Dead

A fascinating experience

This is an event that takes place every year in Ciudad Universitaria, behind the rectory of the university, from OCT 30 to NOV 2. It involves all the faculties and schools of the UNAM, and various related institutions. It's really worth a visit as it is not the traditional Day of the Dead offerings, but on the contrary, the subject matter changes from year to year, and with it the creativity of participants it gets even more interesting. For example, last year (2008) was dedicated to Jose Guadalupe Posada, and the year previous was dedicated to the works of author Juan Rulfo.
