MUMBAI : India's premier supplier of luxurious foreign liquor brands, Monika Alcobev, is thrilled to announce a groundbreaking collaboration between SOCIAL, a collective of creative neighbourhood cafés, and the legendary tequila brand Jose Cuervo. Facilitated by Monika Alcobev, this unique partnership promises a blend of culture, tradition, and premium spirits at the much-anticipated Day of the Dead festival. Celebrating the vibrant Mexican holiday, Dia de los Muertos, this event will take place at SOCIAL's flagship outlets nationwide from October 27th to November 5th, 2023.  Zomato Live, the LIVE events and experiences vertical of Zomato, has been onboarded as the exclusive ticketing partner to make this unique cultural celebration accessible to audiences across six cities.

The Day of the Dead Festival, rooted in Mexican heritage, pays homage to departed loved ones with a blend of indigenous Aztec beliefs and Catholic traditions. Families create elaborate ofrendas (altars) adorned with marigolds, candles, and cherished items, honouring their spirits by placing their favourite foods and drinks. This celebration is marked by colourful parades, sugar skull decorations, and intricate face painting, emphasizing the joyful cycle of life and death.

Monika Alcobev, renowned for bringing the world's most prestigious liquor brands to India, orchestrated this collaboration, aligning Jose Cuervo's commitment to quality with India's love for premium spirits. Kunal Patel, Managing Director of Monika Alcobev, expressed his excitement, stating, "This partnership merges the cultural richness of Day of the Dead with Jose Cuervo's craftsmanship, promising an unforgettable experience. By fusing tradition, art, and top-tier spirits, attendees will embark on a unique journey into Mexican culture. This collaboration will elevate the celebratory experience, offering a taste of Mexico's rich heritage to all event attendees."
