Each year, on the last Sunday of October, the Healdsburg Plaza gazebo becomes a community altar of shared remembrance, filled with bright marigolds, flickering candles and the photos of loved ones who have passed away. Healdsburg’s annual Día de Muertos is a beloved local tradition that invites everyone in our community to connect with our ancestors, with new and old traditions, and with one another. There will be a community altar where all are invited to add a loved one’s picture, as well as free kids activities, live music, a car show, food available for purchase and lots more!
