THE DAY OF THE DEAD PARADE

Will begin at the intersection of Ave. Mexico and San Salvador in Colonia 5 de Diciembre. No specific route was announced but it will MOST LIKELY continue along Ave. Mexico, then onto the Malecón and will go as far as the monumental Catrina.

A Malecón Catrina fell landing on a person; no major injuries were sustained. https://tribunadelabahia.com.mx/casi-se-lo-lleva-la-calaca-a-vendedor-59753
