Dia De Los Muertos '26

The monarch butterfly (Danaus plexippus) travels up to 5,000 kilometers annually between Canada, the Verenigde Staten, and Mexico. This spectacular migration is one of the most impressive natural phenomena in the world. In Mexico, the arrival or return of the monarch butterflies coincides with Día de los Muertos, the holiday on which deceased loved ones are commemorated. On 31/10, the monarch butterflies land in De Centralevoor for an authentic celebration of Día de los Muertos, curated for the 11th time already by Marcela Narvaez Dávila. Mariachi de Ambereszorgt for the perfect warm-up with a festive set full of Mexican classics, mariachi harmonies, and irresistible serenades. Next, AYEKAN takes over the stage. This band from Chile and Peru brings an infectious mix of cumbia, huayno, salsa, saya, and other Latin American styles. With psychedelic electronic sounds, warm string instruments, and uplifting rhythms, Ayekan guarantees a vibrant and heartwarming concert. After the costume contest, La Mambotecahet takes over the party. Their DJs celebrate the richness of Latin American music culture, ranging from timeless classics to the contemporary sounds coloring the continent today. A party for all generations, until the early hours.
