The City of Long Beach will hold its Día de los Muertos Festival on Sunday, November 1, 2026, from 1 to 7 p.m. at Rainbow Lagoon, 400 E. Shoreline Drive. The festival is free and open to the public.
The city is co-hosting with the office of First District Councilwoman Mary Zendejas. The program lists cultural performances, vendors and a resource fair with participation from city departments and community partners.
This year the event returns to its original festival format, according to the city.
Nonprofits and community groups can still apply for resource fair space, and food vendors and retailers can submit interest forms. The city’s deadline for applications is October 23.
