When a dia de los muertos celebration also involves llamas. Yes, really.

Overview

So, you know that dia de los muertos hails from Latin America — but did you know that llamas do too? Don't worry, as with everything these days, there's a festival that combines both: the Brisbane Fiesta Latina 2016.

This year's Latin American shindig once again commemorates the Day of the Dead, but it also does more than that. You've either been to or heard about the many, many culture-specific festivities that grace Brisbane's public areas on any given weekend, so you know the mix of food, music, markets, dancing, and arts and crafts that we're talking about.

The Fiesta celebrates 22 diverse, unique countries when it takes over West End's Russell Street from 3pm on October 29. And, once the main event is over, there's an on-theme after party at Archive Beer Boutique to keep the fun keepin' on. Dress up, win prizes, and drink the Brisbane Brewing Company brown porter with chocolate and chilli that's on offer especially for the night.
