Which Mexico City avenue was part of the 2016 Day of the Dead parade route?

Paseo de la Reforma was part of Mexico City’s 2016 Day of the Dead parade route.

The broad, ceremonial avenue carried the parade toward the city center, where the route continued through the historic core and ended at the Zócalo. Reforma is one of Mexico City’s best-known boulevards, recognized for monuments, museums, major intersections and the Angel of Independence. Its scale made it a natural setting for a parade featuring large floats, dancers and calavera imagery.

The route is easy to confuse with other major Mexico City arteries, including Avenida Juárez and Avenida Insurgentes. Those streets may appear in accounts of city events or traffic closures, but Paseo de la Reforma is the named avenue most directly associated with the 2016 inaugural Day of the Dead parade route. The event took place on October 29, 2016.
