(NM) Burning of Zozobra Friday, September 3

[LearnedHand]

Last year was totally virtual, and people from around the world participated. (In a normal year, people submit a few thousand Glooms; last year the virtual Glooms submitted exceeded 110,000!) This year is a hybrid event, but you can still send in your Glooms to be burned and watch the live streaming event. It’s really something to see and a truly cleansing and uplifting ritual. This year’s event is the 100th anniversary of Zozobra’s founding.

5. I remember years past when they had 50-75,000 in attendance.

The square was so crowded with the best mariachi bands in the world. Food tents everywhere with the smell of Navajo bread and great Mexican food. I think it has changed a lot in recent years?
