The colonial city of Pátzcuaro in addition to the lake ceremony hosts a week-long festival of ofrenda altar competitions in every plaza, public building, and business throughout the city, making the entire urban area into a participatory Day of the Dead art installation. The Purépecha markets selling marigolds, skull sugar candy, and Day of the Dead bread create the most commercially vibrant market culture associated with the holiday.
