There are 25 altars that evoke the Mexican tradition, keeping the memory of their loved ones or some distinguished character of the city, the state, or the country, as well as in memory of the victims of femicide, adorned with cempasúchil flowers, food, typical sweets, and multicolored paper.

On the occasion of this event, the councilor Sara Mosqueda, gave a message thanking all those who joined with their altars to preserve our Mexican tradition, because the offerings are one of the greatest symbols of Mexican culture “where we show off our colors, our cuisine and its flavors and our beautiful flowers, but above all a one-of-a-kind celebration that speaks of love for our loved ones”.
She also highlighted that a deep and colorful meaning distinguishes us Mexicans, who remember loved ones who came before us, with a joyful celebration “without a doubt a good legacy for our Mexico and for the world.”
