Festival of The Dead
Sorry you are too late, this event has been and gone!
After a sellout tour across the UK in 2018, Festival of The Dead returns to Glasgow's O2 Academy on Saturday 9th October!
About Festival of The Dead
A unique combination of carnival, circus and clubbing inspired by the art of the Day of The Dead celebration.
The most imaginative, immersive and out right wicked events any where on planet earth.
Giant puppets and incredible creatures join breath taking performers to bring you a show straight from the depths of the afterlife.
“Quite simply, this is one of the most unique events you will have ever been to.”
Please note: our guests are as much a part of the show as the performers. Come dressed in your deathly best.
While we take every opportunity to ensure the details for Festival of The Dead are accurate, we always advise that you contact the event organiser before setting out for the event to avoid disapointment. All information (whether in text or photographs) is given in good faith but should not be relied upon as being a statement of representation or fact.
