Honoring the Ancestors: Tucson Taiko and the Procession

Odaiko Sonora Japanese Taiko drumming & dance troupe has been an integral part of the Procession for a decade. Every year, they play the drums, dance, and sing behind the Urn. And in several years, they have been part of the Finale Ceremony. And in 2016 they are bringing a very special Ondeko performance to the Procession.


The Ancestors Project

Every year, people send in hundreds of photos of their beloved dead, and we create a video that we project onto buildings around the Finale Site. Director Adam Cooper-Terán talks about the Ancestors Project.


Voices of the Procession

The Procession is made of tens of thousands of stories. Here are a few.


Restoration of Care: The Heart Behind the Scenes

Our tech crew offers their skills as a service to the community–behind the scenes, offering technical expertise and equipment to help create the ceremonial power of the Procession.


Finale Theme 2016: The Hunter & The Hunted

Every year, the Finale has a theme that explores death, life, and grief. Artistic Director Nadia Hagen discusses the 2016 theme.


All Souls Procession History

The All Souls Procession is a grassroots, donation-funded, volunteer-run celebration to honor our beloved dead. Over 100,000 people gather every November in Tucson, AZ to walk through the streets carrying photographs of loved ones, pulling altars and floats, playing instruments, wearing costumes, dancing, and singing. Shot and edited by Leslie Epperson.
