Lanii Tu’guul is the grandest Zapotec festivity of the dead. 

Lanii means celebration, and Tu’guul are our loved ones who are no longer with us but return home on November 1st—a central element of our cosmovision

Their return is not somber, but a jubilant celebration. We prepare offerings, dance, share meals, and sip the finest mezcal with our guules 

The common translation of “Day of the Dead” does not capture the depth and joy of Lanii Tu’guul, which is why we warmly invite you to responsibly experience it firsthand 

During this season, celebrations are ongoing and vary across Zapotec communities outside Oaxaca City. Together, we will learn from community members and honor the unique traditions of each place we visit.
