Mexicans living around the world will spend this evening into tomorrow honouring their lost loved ones – by creating colourful altars, preparing their favourite foods, and playing music at their graves.

It’s all a part of the ‘Day of the Dead’ celebration.

While the holiday revolves around death – it really is a joyful and very colourful celebration of life, many Latin American cultures believe the souls of their loved ones come to visit tonight.
