Mark your calendars — Saturday, November 8th, 2025, from 6 PM to 10 PM, the Crossroads Hotel in Kansas City will come alive with color, rhythm, and tradition for the annual Día de los Muertos: La Fiesta. In partnership with the Mattie Rhodes Art Center & Gallery and the Kansas City Museum, this vibrant celebration beautifully blends history, culture, and community into one unforgettable evening.
A Celebration of Life and Heritage
Día de los Muertos, or Day of the Dead, is a Mexican tradition that honors loved ones who have passed away — not with sorrow, but with music, food, and joy. It’s a time to remember, reflect, and celebrate the cycles of life with family, friends, and community.
Crossroads Hotel captures that spirit perfectly, transforming its space into a colorful cultural experience that invites everyone to connect with the meaning and magic of this special holiday.
💃 The Experience
From the moment you arrive, the night promises to be a feast for the senses:
Folklórico dancing will bring Mexican storytelling to life through vivid costumes and graceful movement. Roaming mariachi musicians will fill the air with soulful melodies, while one of Kansas City’s favorite Latin bands sets the rhythm for the night. Witness vibrant sugar skulls and alebrije puppetry, and let the artistry inspire you as you enjoy complimentary face painting for adults — an invitation to fully join in the celebration. Sip on specialty cocktails and taste dishes thoughtfully crafted just for this evening — each inspired by traditional Latin flavors. Explore a curated marketplace of Hispanic makers, where creativity meets culture. Don’t forget to make a contribution to the ofrenda, a beautiful altar honoring loved ones past.
🕯️ More Than a Party — A Tribute
This event is more than just a festive gathering; it’s a living expression of love, remembrance, and resilience. Whether you’re discovering Día de los Muertos for the first time or continuing a cherished tradition, La Fiesta at Crossroads Hotel is an opportunity to connect with Kansas City’s vibrant Latinx community and celebrate together.
