If you love tequila and Mexican food, music, design and pretty much everything else, you’ll definitely want to head to the Jose Cuervo Day of the Dead Dome at this year’s Skycity Carnaval Festival.

Encapsulating the vibrant culture of Mexico and bringing to life the country’s annual Day of the Dead celebration – held to honour and remember the souls of lost loved ones – the Jose Cuervo Dome will house a bespoke margarita bar where you can create and customize your own Jose Cuervo margarita, enjoy authentic cuisine from the Dos Amigos food truck, party to music from the likes of Ari Jade, play Mexican games, create your own flower head garland, or go all in and opt for some face and body painting.
