Missoula’s Annual Festival of the Dead

For over 30 years Missoula’s Annual Festival of the Dead has been a beloved tradition that brings our community together to honor loved ones lost, share our grief, and create innovative artistic expressions to move through pain and to celebrate lives lived. This multi-cultural festival offers an opportunity to share our unique traditions, learn from each other, and embrace the healing power of collective support. This occasion is somber for some, and a jubilation of life and remembrance for others—all paying tribute to the lasting connections that endure through our memories. Community events of all kinds are encouraged, as we all have different ways of processing grief. All are welcome to join in closing out this month-long event at the Festival of the Dead Procession on November 2, a magnificent celebration of life, death, and the arts.
