DIA DE LOS MUERTOS FIESTA
Day of the Dead

Sure we love Halloween, but when it comes to celebrating the Dead, the Mexicans really have it nailed with their colourfully morbid Dia de los Muertos festivals. So, in the spirit of keeping it forward thinking, we’re teaming up with Cazadores tequila to throw a spectacular Dia de los Muertos fiesta - and we want you to be there!

Held at The Bathhouse (Time Out’s best new venue and tucked away in a graveyard in the City of London) on November 3rd, we’re offering UJ subscribers the chance to attend this colourfully morbid shindig for the soul, complete with free Cazadores cocktails and canapés, UJ faves, Audio Sushi, J Saintil and Miss Jodie Harsh on the decks and expert makeovers.

The venue will be dressed to impress to our theme of ‘Aztec art, floral gothic, skulls & souls’ - and you will need to be as well! All we ask for is a little effort; if you need some Dia de los Muertos inspiration, think glitter and gold, vibrant pinks and purples, feathers, ‘catrionas’ and marigolds. We’ve even put together a playlist and a fashionable moodboard to get you inspired.

To join the fiesta please RSVP to diadelosmuertosRSVP@urbanjunkies.com, describing what your Dia de los Muertos look will be and if you are one of the first 100 we will send you a confirmation for you and a lucky plus one.

DIA DE LOS MUERTOS PLAYLIST
Audiosushi’s Party Tasters

Halloween over here might be all about "trick or treat" and outfits that are, as a friend recently put it, pure "whore or gore" – but the Mexican festival of Dia de los Muertos is a whole different can of beans. So in honour of Cazadores tequila and their massive Dia de los Muertos fiesta out East on Tuesday, here's a little Urban Junkies x AudioSushi playlist to push the party through this weekend and right out into next week's Day of the Dead.

HOW TO DRESS DEAD
UJ’s Dia de los Muertos Moodboard

Planning on joining us next Tuesday for our Dia de los Muertos, but lacking the necessary dressing up skills? Fear not – we’re making it easy for you. Think Aztec prints and forgotten gold, skulls, souls and spirits, and Mexicana florals in a Frida Khalo-ish artsy vein. Remember, this is Modern Mexico; so try and leave the maracas and ponchos in the closet.
