The Place at Cabo Celebrates Day of the Dead with the “Ceremonia de Ofrenda” Festival Festival

The heart of Cabo San Lucas was filled with music, color, and tradition last Saturday, November 1st, with the “Ceremony of Offering” festival, organized by The Place at Cabo. The event, inspired by the Day of the Dead, brought together more than 120 artists, dozens of restaurants, and a wide variety of cultural and culinary activities along the Marina.
Idaña Salmón, marketing director of The Place at Cabo, explained that the festivities began at 5:00 p.m. and continued until late into the night. “We had offering ceremonies led by chef Abraham Tamés, altars in the sea created by artist Guillermo Rivelino, and an atmosphere that combined Mexican tradition with the best of international cuisine and music,” she noted.
The event offered a unique culinary experience with the participation of 50 of the destination’s best restaurants, where attendees could enjoy everything from traditional Mexican street food and pan de muerto to gourmet dishes featuring ingredients like Wagyu beef and foie gras. Brand activations included Coca-Cola, Topo Chico, and Chivas Regal, among others.
General admission was 1,500 pesos, which included food and beverage tastings, while the VIP pass, at 2,500 pesos, offered exclusive access to a private area to mingle with the artists, as well as more food options and premium drinks.
Musically, the festival featured ten bands across three different stages, including groups from Nashville and a headline performance by Solo Liquids, who premiered their new single during the event. The musical genres were varied: rock, country, reggae, and electronic music, guaranteeing a night full of energy and rhythm. The festivities also included altar and Catrina contests, with a prize pool of fifty thousand pesos, as well as the participation of university students who assisted with logistics and showcased their artistic talent.
With this celebration, The Place at Cabo not only honored Mexican traditions but also solidified its role as a cultural and gastronomic meeting place in Los Cabos. “We broke records. Never before has such a large lineup been seen in this destination,” Chef Tamés emphasized.
The festival took place behind the Ferris wheel, on the Barracuda boardwalk, with access starting at 5:00 p.m. and parking available nearby. Undoubtedly, it was a night that combined the spirit of Día de Muertos (Day of the Dead) with the cosmopolitan flair that characterizes Cabo San Lucas.
