Tribal Burn: Day of the Dead
Saturday, November 22 | 6:30–9:30pm
Sacred Lands, 1700 Park St N, St. Pete, FL

Twice a year, we gather around the sacred fire—magical, powerful, and transformative. This season, we celebrate the Day of the Dead with Tribal Burn, an immersive fire show, cultural ritual, and community celebration at Sacred Lands, the lush grounds of an ancient Tocobago village.

The Story
Two lovers, lost in grief, wander into the spirit world. Guided by La Catrina, they encounter a vibrant tapestry of performances—flamenco passion, Aztec goddesses, jaguars, butterflies, demons, and more. Each encounter mirrors their emotions—fear, sorrow, joy, awe—until they finally awaken to the circle of life, uplifted by its beauty and mystery.

What to Expect

  • Fire show & theatrical performance

  • Day of the Dead theme—come dressed up or simply as you are

  • Dinner option available by advance order ($35)

  • Sacred Lands fundraiser in collaboration with World Harmony Project Inc.

Schedule

  • 6:30pm – Dinner (advance order)

  • 7:30pm – Doors open

  • 8:00pm – Showtime!

Tickets

  • First row: $45

  • Second row: $35

  • General admission: $25

  • Dinner $35 add-on

Parking is limited—please carpool or use Uber/Lyft.

Every ticket supports Sacred Lands and our mission of weaving together world traditions to create a more compassionate, connected future.
