MOTEL MEXICOLA DÍA DE LOS MUERTOS 2026
Día de los Muertos returns to Motel Mexicola this October, taking over Seminyak, Canggu and Uluwatu for one night of remembrance, ritual and full Mexican celebration of life. This year, Motel Mexicola goes deeper into that tradition: less spooky, more corazón; more ritual winding through the night.
Across all three locations, the night comes alive with characters drawn from Mexican folklore and the afterlife. La Catrina. La Bruja. El Charro de la Muerte. Faces painted, staff transformed and figures roaming between the tables as the casas fill with photographs, altars and reminders of those who came before us.
Come dressed for the occasion. Guests arriving in costume between 6pm – 9pm receive a complimentary Margarita Sangrienta, while the best dressed at each venue takes home IDR 10 million cash. Face painting runs from early hours on a first-come, first-served basis to get you ready for the fiesta. If you’re in it to win it, come early.
The kitchen joins the ritual with Día de los Muertos specials, highlighting Flor de Calabaza Rellena with prawns, chorizo and adobo negro; Los Pollos Hermanos with pipian rojo and encurtidos; and traditional Pan de Muerto served with hot chocolate.
As dinner turns into fiesta, the music rises and the night gets louder.
The dead are remembered the Mexicola way: comida, corazón y vida.
When: Saturday, 31 October 2026, 6pm – late.
Where: Motel Mexicola Seminyak · Canggu · Uluwatu
