About Panteón Fest

On October 17, 2026, Pipiripau will host the 4th Annual Panteón Fest in Oxnard, California, a Día de los Muertos celebration created by brothers Rolando and Heriberto Rubalcava, founders of Pipiripau, a local brand dedicated to celebrating Mexican culture through art, apparel, and community experiences.

Recognized as one of Ventura County’s premier Día de los Muertos celebrations, Panteón Fest brings together thousands of attendees for live music, theatrical performances, traditional dance, Aztec ceremonies, community altars, an art gallery, artisan vendors, hands on cultural activities, and the Catrín & Catrina Contest.

More than a festival, Panteón Fest is an educational and cultural experience that celebrates remembrance, strengthens community connections, and helps new generations connect with the traditions and significance of Día de los Muertos in an authentic and welcoming environment.

Each year, Panteón Fest features a unique creative theme that inspires the event experience. In 2026, the festival will present an artistic tribute to the legacy of Roberto Gómez Bolaños, Chespirito, with original artwork and creative installations inspired by the characters and stories that have become part of Mexican and Latin American culture.

Why Support Matter

Panteón Fest was created because we believe our community deserves more than just another festival. It deserves a celebration of our history, traditions, and the beauty of Mexican culture. Through art, music, storytelling, and meaningful experiences, we bring families together, support local artists, and inspire future generations to embrace and feel proud of where they come from.

More than an event, Panteón Fest is an authentic Día de los Muertos experience that brings Ventura County communities together through cultural storytelling, immersive installations, live performances, and meaningful connections.

Months before the festival, we dedicate countless hours to bringing this vision to life, from creative direction and promotion to production, permits, insurance, entertainment, vendors, security, and every detail in between. With the help of our friends and family, we build props, transform the space, curate the art gallery, and create the immersive experience that makes Panteón Fest truly unique.

This year, Panteón Fest 2026 honors Chespirito, celebrating his legacy through themed props, creative installations, and art inspired by one of the most beloved figures in Mexican culture.

Creating an experience of this caliber takes more than passion. It takes a community that believes in its importance. Sponsorship allows us to continue investing in the production, artists, performers, and cultural experiences that make Panteón Fest possible.

Your support helps us preserve traditions, create opportunities for local talent, and provide a space where families can celebrate their heritage with pride. By partnering with Panteón Fest, your organization becomes part of a cultural movement that brings people together and creates lasting memories for generations to come.

We invite you to join us as a partner in celebrating our heritage and helping keep Panteón Fest alive for years to come.
