About Xibalba
Xibalba (pronounced “shee-bal-ba”) is the Mayan underworld—not a place of eternal damnation, but a realm of trials, transformation, and rebirth. A place where souls journey to be transformed, where darkness and light dance in eternal balance.
Our Gates to Xibalba events honor this ancient mythology, creating immersive experiences where we descend into the depths of sound and consciousness, confront our shadows, and emerge transformed. During the sacred days of Día de Muertos, we celebrate death not as an ending but as a continuation: a portal to honor our ancestors and remember that we too are part of an eternal cycle.
Dance of the Ancestors
Dance of the Ancestors celebrates the wisdom of those who came before, inviting their energy to guide us through the weekend. This is more than a party; it’s a ceremonial journey, a communion with ancient forces through modern sound.
Enter Xibalba…
Lose yourself in the rhythm.
Remember who you are.
