El Poder de la Cultura Morelense brings a full Día de los Muertos celebration to Santa Ana with live music, food, vendors, and the distinctive Chinelos de Morelos—traditional dancers in elaborate costumes and tall hats whose moves were born as a colonial-era satire. The day’s centerpiece is a 5:00 PM parade of Chinelos and Catrinas, the elegant skeletal figures, weaving through the streets. It’s a lively, meaningful slice of Mexican heritage that adds a special layer to the city’s holiday festivities.
