There’s no better destination in the world to celebrate Halloween and el Día de los Muertos than Mexico, when the streets overflow with tributes to those who have passed. Parades, festivals, face painting, live music, and tribute alters commemorate those who have impacted our lives.

VACAYA, an LGBTQ+ tour operator celebrating its fifth anniversary, returns to Puerto Vallarta this year for a week-long celebration. This week’s all-inclusive resort takeover has included dance parties, live drag performances, plenty of time in the sun and ocean, and even a Red Light District (an off-shore catamaran reached by tender for those seeking adult fun).

GayCities has been on site all week for the festivities. Here’s a peek at VACAYA’s Halloween party and prom theme costume contest!
