WHAT: Red Bull Mapa de los Muertos pays tribute to El Día de los Muertos (The Day of the Dead) which is celebrated throughout Latin America, mostly in Mexico. Musicians and artists from across Texas will invade San Antonio to provide the city with a night to remember.

Although this holiday is about the dead, it's not a somber occasion. In fact, the celebration should be full of life, food, family, music and fun. This event will serve as a guide for die-hard revelers to celebrate The Day of the Dead with live music, art and special performances.

Bands will perform at four different venues in the city’s thriving cultural district, allowing spectators to follow the map and find the fun at each spot. Along with the incredible live-music, each location will display custom alters built to honor those who musically influenced the bands.
