Día de los Muertos 2026 Celebration
Join us at the Nebraska History Museum for Día de los Muertos (Day of the Dead) on Saturday, October 31st, with free admission from 9 AM to 4 PM! There will be activities for everyone in the family to celebrate the holiday! We will be posted throughout the museum, alongside the Nebraska Historical Society's partner organizations, the Nebraska Commission on Latino Americans, and Linked2Literacy from 9 AM to 12 PM.
• Play a Round of Nebraska-Themed Lotería—a traditional Mexican game, similar to bingo, but with a Nebraska twist.
• Scavenger Hunt—Explore the stories and history of Nebraska’s Hispanic and Latino communities through objects in our exhibits.
• Make Your Own Button/Sticker—Honor the loved ones you are remembering by creating a button or sticker.
• Matching Activity—Day of the Dead is celebrated in tons of different ways across the world! Can you match the tradition to the country it is from?
The free admission for this event is funded by support from the Nebraska State Historical Society Foundation. So don’t forget to stop by the thank-you card table and write a note for them!
