The Unity Council Día de Los Muertos Annual Festival is a free, outdoor festival that brings over 100,000 people to the vibrant, culturally-rich Fruitvale neighborhood to enjoy world-class live music, family-friendly games, rides and activities, traditional Latin American artisans, and the stunning altar artistic installations created by community members paying homage to los Muertos. The Día de los Muertos Festival was inducted into the U.S. Library of Congress by Congresswoman Barbara Lee as a "Local Legacy."

Every year, The Unity Council selects a theme for the ofrendas and the poster art. The theme for this year is Los Ausentes (The Absent) paying respect to those who are no longer with us, whether they are loved ones who have passed away, or members of this very community who have been displaced due to deportation, gentrification, or incarceration. For every loved one who has passed into the afterlife... For every family member who is hopelessly waiting across an ocean or border fence... For every person missing someone behind bars... Join us to pay tribute and celebrate Los Ausentes.

Each year The Unity Council organizes the Fruitvale Dia de los Muertos Festival to benefit local artists, small businesses and entrepreneurs, and to celebrate and protect the vibrant Latino culture in Oakland. This free family-friendly event brings over 100,000 people to the Fruitvale neighborhood each year.

The 2019 Fruitvale Dia de los Muertos Festival is made possible by the generous support of the following sponsors:

Day of the Dead - Dia de los Muertos San Rafael will celebrate its 31st anniversary on Saturday, November 2, 2019 at the Albert J. Boro Community Center from 3:00 to 9:00pm. We hope you will join us in sharing this tradition.
In the weeks leading up to the Día de los Muertos celebration this year, local artists and community members will create ofrendas (altars) to honor the spirits and lives of loved ones who have passed, whether they be ancestors or important historical figures.

These altars, which will be displayed at Al Boro Community Center, serve as an invitation to those who have passed to visit on Día de los Muertos.

Children and adults alike will have the opportunity to view and create altars through workshops and school group visits.

On the day of the festival, the traditional procession will pass through the Canal neighborhood.

The Community Center will be packed with hundreds of visitors and we will offer live music by local artists, storytelling, face painting, and craft projects, all at no charge.

Visitors will be able to decorate sugar skulls, create papel picado decorations, and sample traditional foods.
