What can you expect at Día? 💀🌼

Yes—the music, the food, the art, the vendors and a Downtown New Braunfels completely transformed for the day.

But there’s something bigger underneath all of it.

Remembrance. Culture. Community. Tradition.

For 10 years, Día de los Mu***os New Braunfels has created a place to celebrate the people we love, learn the meaning behind the traditions, and pass those stories on to the next generation—all while supporting cultural education and scholarships for local students.

Come hungry. Bring your family. Stay awhile. And come ready to remember. 🧡

📅 October 17 | 12–10 PM
📍 Downtown New Braunfels
