In the USA, the Day of the Dead is celebrated in many communities with Mexican heritage. The holiday is typically observed with parades, festivals, and public gatherings, where people dress up in colorful costumes and paint their faces in elaborate designs. The celebrations often feature music, dancing, and traditional foods, such as pan de muerto (bread of the dead) and sugar skulls. Many also build altars in their homes or public spaces to honor deceased loved ones and offer them gifts and prayers. While the holiday has its roots in Mexican culture, it has become a famous and beloved tradition among people of all backgrounds in the USA.
