DENTON’S DAY OF THE DEAD FESTIVAL- Industrial Street District, Industrial St., Denton, TX. This event takes place on Hickory and Industrial St. Denton’s Day of the Dead Festival captures the very essence of Denton’s artistic spirit: a true collaboration of the eclectic art and music community that only the northernmost tip of the golden triangle can provide. As is the artistic scene in this ever growing “little” town, Denton’s DOD Festival is a wonderful smorgasbord, paying homage to many of fall’s treasures such as cooler weather, the harvest, the celebration of Dia de los Muertos, and all things Halloween. Denton’s DOD Fest includes Denton’s original Halloween Cabaret “Cirque du Horror,” as well as Denton’s very own Coffin Races and a lantern-lit twilight parade all help make this event truly magical and one you won’t soon forget. Come in costume and enjoy any of these activities. Event begins at 11 a.m. and goes until 9 p.m.
