At Wharf St. Distillery, we love a reason to celebrate — and some traditions are too beautiful, too full of life, and too close to our hearts not to share ... Día de Muertos — Day of the Dead — is one of them.
This vibrant Mexican tradition is more than just sugar skulls and bright colours. It’s a joyful celebration of life, a time to honour those we love and the memories we carry. And for the Wharf St. crew, it’s personal — many of our team speak Spanish, and one of us hails from Mexico itself. We’ve danced in the streets of Mexico City during this festival. We’ve eaten pan de muerto fresh from the oven. We’ve heard the music, seen the costumes, and felt the energy that makes this day so extraordinary.
This year, we’re bringing that magic home to Forster — and you’re invited.
Step Into the Story
On Saturday 1 November, Wharf St Distillery will transform into a swirling carnival of sound, colour, and flavour. Here’s what’s waiting for you:
🌺 Hula Show — a burst of light-filled energy to ignite the night.
🥁Live Percussion — infectious rhythms you’ll feel in your soul.
🎧 International DJ — DJ Andre brings a modern Latin heartbeat to the dance floor, fusing tribal rhythms, Afro house, and Balearic grooves for a night that moves with the spirit of Día de Muertos.
🌮 Mexican Bites — vibrant, flavour-packed small plates straight from our kitchen.
🍹Day of the Dead Cocktail — bold, colourful, unforgettable.
Dress Like You Mean It
Día de Muertos is about going all in with colour and creativity. We want to see flower crowns, face paint, embroidered jackets, swirling skirts, tailored suits with a twist, glitter, feathers, and sugar skull artistry.
We’ll have giveaways for the best costume — so make it dramatic, make it joyful, make it yours.
Why You Can’t Miss This
Because this isn’t just another night out — it’s Wharf St’s love letter to a tradition that has captured our hearts. It’s an invitation to be part of something vivid, warm, and a little wild. To dance under lights, share food and stories, and celebrate life in all its colour.
