First Friday: Día de Muertos

Celebrate the Mexican Day of the Dead festival with a night of mariachi music, lively dance and authentic cuisine.


Día de Muertos is one of Mexico’s most iconic holidays, and marks a time when families believe the souls of the departed return to visit. To mark this venerable celebration, the Winter Garden will be transformed into a place where all spirits are welcome.

As you savor an array of delectable Mexican dishes, you’ll tap your feet to the rhythms of the mariachi group Mariachi Mexican La Fiesta and be inspired by the performances of cultural group México en la Piel.

While festive attire is recommended, please be aware that this is not a Halloween party, so do not come in costume.

The first 100 to sign up for the event will enter a draw for two Rejuvenating Treatments at The Spa, and the Culture, Community & Entertainment Committee will give away three bottles of Clase Azul tequila in a lucky draw.

And remember: the partying isn’t just for the grown-ups. Kids unwind at the end of the school week at Movie Night from 6pm.
