Event Details
DAY 0 (Fri, Oct 29): 🛬 Arrival and Welcome Party
We'd like to welcome you to Oaxaca with a private party Friday on a rooftop in downtown Oaxaca. So, be sure to arrive by early Friday afternoon. Places are booking up quickly. So, if you think you can make it, we recommend you start looking now.
DAY 1 (Sat, Oct 30): 🌵 Palenque Sunset to Sunrise
Take in the beauty of Oaxaca valley. Join us in the town of Mitla, a cultural landmark of Zapotec. We will travel to an open field tucked against the mountains at sunset, with rows and rows of agave. You’ll have a chance to visit the neighboring palenque – a traditional mezcal distillery – to learn about the process behind how mezcal is produced. We will have music, food, and drinks from sunset to sunrise. It’s sure to be a magical night.
DAY 2 (Sun Oct 31): 💀 Halloween in Centro
The party continues on day 2, Halloween, and the eve of Dia de Los Muertos. We are honored to have access to a historic venue, an abandoned hotel in the heart of Oaxaca’s landmark downtown Centro district. Food, drink, and vendors will all be on-site across the many rooms hiding throughout the space. And of course, amazing artists will be performing all night long!

Information for Visitors
Flights
Direct flights from California, Florida, New York, really most states are hard/impossible to find. All the flight options from the US go primarily through Texas, Mexico City, or Guadalajara before Oaxaca. Oaxaca airport has a number of flights in and out daily, but given it’s the busiest travel week of the year for Oaxaca, it’s recommended you line up flights as early as possible – because prices are rising fast!
~~~
Hotels & Accommodations
Housing is stretched thin because of Dia de Los Muertos. But, we recommended booking something now, early, to have something via Expedia, hotels.com, and Bookings.com, Airbnb, and VRBO. At the bottom of this page is a short list of Airbnb options we found.
NOTE: We have confirmed that many hotels are holding rooms for Dia de Los Muertos, but show as having no-availability online. We recommend emailing or calling hotels directly to see if they have availability. With select hotels, we've been able to hold rooms specific for this event. Most are holding for a limited time, so book now.

The City
Oaxaca is a big city with a large footprint. But, as a visitor, the area of interest is confined primarily to Centro.
Centro is a centrally located historic neighborhood. It’s what you typically expect to see of Oaxaca: stone-paved streets, colorful buildings, churches, parades, and all of that. Centro is where everyone visiting wants to stay, drink, and eat – and during the week of Dia de Los Muertos, it’s going to be swamped with visitors. This also means it’s going to grow increasingly difficult to find places to stay.
It’s also worth noting that, even on a chill week, it’s not typical to find large multi-room houses (4+ bedrooms) available for rent. They are out there, but limited. It’s more common to come across houses with 2-3 beds. I know we’re spoiled by 30 room mansions for Blue Magic events, but for Muertos, it’s more realistic if people teamed up in smaller groups and tried to find places near Centro. We’re going to be spending most of our time out in Centro or partying outside the city. So, it’s more about just having a place that works, but not one that’s perfect.
North of Centro is a neighborhood called Reforma. Even further north of Reforma is San Felipe del Agua. Both these neighborhoods are safe and might offer more options for accommodations. However, you’ll need a taxi to get into Centro – walking from here isn’t an option.
Accommodations
We’ve pulled together links of places across Airbnb and VRBO and different sites. Location, size, amenities, vary between links. Hopefully, there are some gems in there. Dates are already in place.
