Nukari

The Day of the Dead 2025 in Nayarit is more than a celebration—it's a journey into Mexico’s deepest traditions. In the heart of the Magical Town of Jala, this event comes alive through decorated streets, traditional scents, and the warmth of a community that honors its ancestors with profound respect. Here, tradition is not just observed; it is lived.

On November 2nd, we invite you to discover how this sacred date is honored in one of Mexico’s most authentic corners. Jala not only preserves ancient customs but proudly shares them. From vibrant altars to community rituals, this is a truly cultural and spiritual experience.

Staying at Nukari Quinta Boutique, recently awarded as the best traditional hotel in a city or mountain location by México Desconocido, allows you to immerse yourself in the celebration from a place of serenity, comfort, and natural beauty. It’s an intimate experience in one of the most charming Nayarit hotels.

November 2nd: A Celebration of Life and Memory

The Mexican Day of the Dead traditions are centered around reconnecting with loved ones who have passed. In Jala, streets, homes, and town squares are transformed with colorful altars—each one adorned with cempasúchil flowers, candles, papel picado, sugar skulls, and symbolic food offerings. Every detail is a tribute to life, a gesture of love and remembrance.

Each Day of the Dead altar tells a story. As you walk through the town, you’ll encounter family, school, and community altars—each uniquely decorated, and often accompanied by stories shared by the locals. This is an authentic encounter with living culture, where each offering represents a personal connection to someone who’s no longer here.

Jala’s atmosphere is truly special: there is reverence, nostalgia, and also joy. This contrast makes it easy to understand why the Day of the Dead was named Nayarit’s most entertaining celebration in the 2024 “Lo Mejor de Nayarit” awards by México Desconocido.

What to Do in Jala During the Day of the Dead

1. Explore Traditional Altars and Offerings

Throughout the town, families lovingly build unique Day of the Dead altars, filled with photographs, typical dishes, candles, and deeply symbolic decorations. In Jala, each altar is a creative and heartfelt expression of memory.

2. Join the Processions and Rituals

On November 2nd, the town glows with candlelit processions, music, and traditional attire. Locals guide the spirits back to the world of the living through this symbolic journey. Walking alongside them is a powerful way to connect with this Day of Dead Mexican tradition.

3. Enjoy Traditional Jala Cuisine

This celebration is also a feast of flavors. Local stands offer seasonal delights like pan de muerto, tamales, atole, and sweet treats.
