Día de los Muertos Celebration at The Mule

Asheville Sister Cities is hosting its Día de los Muertos celebration at The Mule this Sunday. The event raises money for the committees supporting two of Asheville's sister cities in Mexico, San Cristóbal de las Casas and Valladolid.

It runs from 4 to 8 PM at 131 Sweeten Creek Road. Ballet Folklórico Raíces will dance, Sirius B will play live, and Asheville Second Line will lead a candlelight procession. There's also a photo booth, altars for offerings to departed loved ones, and the Maíz y Amor food truck. Costumes are encouraged.

Tickets are $35, or $25 for students, and kids 12 and under get in free. Grab yours ahead of time.

Devil's Foot is the Asheville crew making non-alcoholic ginger beer, craft sodas and sparkling lemonade with real organic ginger, fruit from local farms and no corn syrup. The Mule is their taproom, set right inside the production facility on Sweeten Creek Road just outside Biltmore Village.

Full bar, but the draft sodas are the point. Cocktails and mocktails run on Devil's Foot sodas, backed by a deep wall of North Carolina spirits, plus local beer, NA beer and wine. A food truck or pop-up is parked out front most days.

The calendar stays stacked for a taproom. Live music, Wednesday night jazz, Latin dance socials, burlesque shows, vintage markets and NFL Sundays on the big screen all land here. Leashed dogs are cool inside.

Regulars will tell you the ginger beer is the real deal, and the Fuego crowd is loyal. The room gets love too, open and bright with a lot of reclaimed wood, and the bartenders know their way around a mocktail. Easy call when half the crew is skipping alcohol and the other half isn't.
