If you’re like me and pack your fall calendar full of fun and festive events, I have exciting news for both of us. The annual El Paso Día de los Muertos parade is returning on October 28, 2023, and (as always) it promises to be a colorful, vibrant, and all-around unforgettable afternoon. Get your face paint out and prepare to have an amazing time.
