2023.10.28-29 Dia de Muerto

10/28-29, Dia de Muerto festival at Seattle Center. 11-6pm. I watched the performances on Saturday. Songs, piano solo, drums, dances of kids and adults, and a fashion show. Many vendors. A lot of skulls for sale, Mexican food and drink.

Extremely colorful, especially the dresses of the dancers and fashion models. All of them had their face painted.

There's a face painting table on the 2nd floor, a small art exhibit, story-telling, poem reading. A lot of people, especially later in the day. The dancers were walking around and posting for photo with everyone. There are 2 very large decorative skulls, like in various other places in downtown.

Later in the week, I found this giant balloon spider outside of Amazon.
