“Psychology professor Roque Mendez, who presented a Philosophy Dialogue on Day of the Dead, said he has traveled throughout Mexico and traditions vary.

Banquets are a major part of Day of the Dead, which are typical in most celebrations, but where they are placed and how the family chooses them varies, Mendez said.

“I remember seeing in-house banquets in Mexico. Sometimes family members would stay over at gravesites,” he said. “Others would have in-house banquets and altars, but they would not necessarily go out to the gravesite.””
