Calaverandia 2024 Kicks Off in Guadalajara

The themed park Calaverandia 2024 will celebrate its fifth anniversary this year, starting its season from October 25 at the Ávila Camacho Park in Guadalajara. Known as a benchmark in Mexico and the world, Calaverandia seeks to attract families to enjoy a magical and spiritual tradition filled with color and music.

One of the novelties this season is the adapted tours for people with visual and hearing disabilities. Tania Cortés, director of Calaverandia, stated: "We are very concerned about providing good experiences to all the public."

The park will be open on Wednesdays, Thursdays, and Sundays from 7:00 PM to 12:00 AM. It is expected to receive more than 80,000 people throughout the season, a figure similar to previous years.

Among the attractions, TAÚ is presented, a new show that narrates the vision of death from the eyes of a child. In addition, simultaneous translations will be carried out for people with hearing disabilities in the Alma show.

Calaverandia has expanded in both size and technological improvements over its editions, now featuring larger mausoleums and areas dedicated to important figures.

Tickets for some dates are sold out, so it is recommended to purchase them in advance. Prices vary, with options like Comfort Pass (VIP) at 1,449 pesos for adults and 799 pesos for children, available at ticket offices and on the Ticketmaster system.

In this new edition, the Cashless payment system will be removed in favor of traditional payment methods with credit and debit cards. Visiting hours will be Fridays and Saturdays from 7:00 PM to 1:00 AM, with parking available near Plaza Patria.

Calaverandia presents itself as a space to immerse in the celebration of the Day of the Dead through altars, multimedia shows, gastronomy, and the experience of entering different worlds within the themed park.
