Day of the Dead Procession
Galway City, Co. Galway
2 November 2025
Family friendly
Free to visit
Come join us on the streets of Galway for a special procession that celebrates our ancestors! Everyone - children, parents, and friends - can come together and celebrate.

This vibrant event brings together three traditions: Samhain, Día de los Muertos, and All Souls' Day.

In partnership with the vibrant Mexican Community in Galway, Galway City Council Night-Time Economy is delighted to present this event as part of Gaillimh Ah-Boo. Led by the Mexican community, the procession will be a beautiful and colourful celebration filled with music, dance, and joy, honouring the shared reverence for ancestors at the heart of all three celebrations. It's a way for everyone—children, parents, and friends—to come together and celebrate the powerful bonds that connect us to our past, present, and future.
