Day of the Dead
Day of the Dead Celebration
at Beaches Sandbox
November 1 & 2, 2025
Join us at Beaches Sandbox in Toronto for a vibrant weekend of free workshops and activities for all ages, celebrating Día de los Muertos (Day of the Dead).
In Mexico, Day of the Dead is a joyful time where family and friends come together to remember and celebrate their loved ones who have died. This year, on Saturday November 1 and Sunday, November 2, curator Silvia Sanchez brings together local Mexican artists, performers, and businesses to share this tradition with the Beaches community.
Experience a weekend filled with interactive, hands-on activities for all ages, pop up performances, vendors and more!
Drop in throughout the weekend or pre-register now to secure your spot in our limited-space workshops and demonstrations.
Beaches Sandbox is an accessibility facility. All are welcome!

Silvia Sanchez, Curator
Originally from Mexico, Silvia grew up in a family rooted in Mexican traditions, enjoying big family gatherings and their different festivities, from traditional Mexican cooking, to culture, to art and crafts.
Having her two children born and raised in different countries outside of Mexico, Silvia has always looked to keep her culture alive and to pass on the Mexican traditions to her children by making them part of their upbringing.
Silvia is proud and enthusiastic of promoting and sharing her Mexican heritage with the Beaches community where she lives and calls home. She is excited and looking forward to bring a bit of it to the Beaches Sandbox Day of the Dead festival.
