Today’s tradition

  Celebration of life

Contemporary Outlook of the day of the dead.

Contemporary Perspective of tradition as world heritage. Day of the Dead has become an international phenomenon. From advertising campaigns to popular films, the tradition is celebrated and accepted by the Mexican diaspora outside of Mexico. Many elements we know today as part of Day of the Dead, did not become part of the tradition until recent years.
