Which Mexican state hosts the 'Festival of Life and Death Traditions' at Xcaret?

The Festival of Life and Death Traditions at Xcaret is hosted in Quintana Roo, Mexico.

Xcaret Park sits on the Caribbean coast of the Riviera Maya, near Playa del Carmen, in the municipality of Solidaridad. The park combines an ecotourism complex with archaeological remains of the Maya port settlement of Xcaret, making it a prominent venue for cultural programming in the region.

The festival is held around Day of the Dead, generally from October 30 to November 2. Its program brings together altars, offerings, food, crafts, workshops, theater, dance, music, and regional traditions. It also highlights Hanal Pixán, the Maya observance for honoring the dead in the Yucatán Peninsula and neighboring areas.

A common mix-up is confusing the host state with a guest state. Xcaret regularly invites another Mexican state to present its own traditions, so the featured region can change from year to year. The venue itself, however, remains in Quintana Roo.
