The deathly fiesta, Festival Of The Dead, is coming to Leeds. With its huge production, carnival-esque pageantry, giant skull processions, and Mexican Day of The Dead inspired costume, it’s no wonder the UK is going potty for this visually stunning event, all year round.
Festival Of The Dead will be at The Church in Leeds on Saturday 10th February.The party is like no other, with carnival-esque pageantry, giant skull processions, acrobats and circus performers that wouldn’t look out of place in Cirque de Soleil. The entertainment is bold and bright with everything from contortionists to fire breathers, ensuring visual senses are in overdrive, while aural treats come from a stunning soundtrack of live music plus DJs spinning quality house, bass and garage, with a Latino twist.
Like many of the Festival Of The Dead dancers, who perform in beautiful, decorative costume; party-goers also come adorned in their finest outfits, mixing Mexican Day Of The Dead, burlesque and everything in between. Leaving inhibitions at the door is all part of the fun, and if you’re not a dab-hand with a makeup brush, don’t worry as professional skull face-painting is available on the night.
Alongside the unique entertainment on offer are DJs and live music, confetti guns, co2 cannons and mesmerising light shows, guaranteeing an unforgettable experience.
