Murphys, CA...Murphys merchants and tasting rooms will be celebrating the Fourth Annual Day of the Dead, or Dia de los Muertos, on November 2nd from 11-6 pm.

We'll once again include a Catrina and Catrin Dress Contest at 4:30 Saturday afternoon at the Black Bart Theater, and a Candle Light Procession to St. Patrick’s Cemetery. Those wishing to participate in the procession should meet at the Spice Tin near the corner of Main Street and Algiers at 5:30 pm. The procession will leave promptly at 5:45 pm. Make sure to bring your flashlight and warm clothing and remember that you will be in a catholic cemetery so please be respectful of the grounds and other folks who may be there.
