I have always had a fascination with Mexican culture, not least Dia de los Muertos , the Mexican Day of the Dead fiesta.
This festival and the Mexicans’ attitude to death, offers a very different perspective to our culture, which has become a very grey, ‘under the carpet’ affair, as opposed to the Mexican day of the Dead which is a colourful celebration of life and death, a remembrance of those lost.
I felt that it was something we truly lacked in our culture – death seems to be something we have difficulty addressing and coming to terms with – what this festival does is it...
Arrrriiibbbbaaa!!! A PHOENIX TAKEOVER!! The highly acclaimed Rambunctious Mexican ball sets its sights on Exeter. Now in it's 3rd year. A dizzying spectacle of DJ dancefloor mayhem, live bands and Mexican magic will take over the whole of Exeter Phoenix downstairs. A very special chance for YOU to dress up and celebrate with the dead in a creatively curious mix of lavish set-design, immersive, interactive experience as well as a dynamic performance. Building on the last two years successes, we are very excited to take this to the city...Don't miss this ever growing experience!...
