This time of year brings out the big boys (or girls although that doesn’t sound right), of the festival world. The State Fair of Texas, GrapeFest (Grapevine), Plano Balloonfest, etc. These are the classic events this area is known for. They’ve been around for 40+ years and they are a well-oiled machine of great music and amazing food goodness.

There will be one newcomer on the scene this year that I predict will become a future classic…Dallas’ Dia de los Muertos event that will run from October 21 through November 18 in and around Dallas.

It’s a long time coming for the city but one promoter has willed this to happen. Mauricio Navarro of the Navarro Group is spear heading this event and it will be stellar. If the name sounds familiar, it’s because he has been producing Dallas’ St. Patrick’s Day events for years.

Save the dates: October 21-November 18!
