Dinner: Once you arrive, you will be seated at a table in the Biga dining room where you will be ordering from a 3 course menu. The ticket price includes food (ordered from the Day of the Dead Menu or the Kids Menu), your parade seat, tax and gratuity. Any additional items like drinks will be billed to you and payment will be made before any guests in your party claim thier parade seats.

Biga doors open at 5pm. (We ask that all parade package participants arrive no later than 5:30. This will allow you enough time to eat dinner before the parade starts.)

MENU…

Our menus are always a work in progress. Chef inspiration could cause this menu to change, but, here is how it is shaping up so far…

Starters (choose one)

Romaine leaves with red pepper Caesar dressing

Roasted corn and poblano soup, pico and fried tortillas

Shrimp and crab campechana, like menu

Elote Fritters plus black beans, guajillo salsa, cilantro sour cream

Main Course (choose one)

New Mexico stacked seafood enchilada topped with verde salsa, stewed black beans and cilantro rice

Crispy skin bone-in chicken breast, white mole, citrus salad

Suadero street tacos, slow cooked beef and seared with coriander and onions, corn tortillas

Spicy stuffed poblano pepper in ginger, scallion, mint rice with hot honey salsa

Dessert (choose all!)

We know it is hard to limit your dessert choice to one so we will have a selection of desserts and you can sample as many as you’d like!

Once dinner is finished you will vacate your table and grab your riverside seat to view the parade.

Parade: The parade will be in our area a little after 7pm. Parade seats are located on the river side of the International Center (We’ll point you in the right direction!). Seats are randomly assigned. If you wish to have parade seats next to family or friends that have also purchased Biga Day of the Dead River Parade tickets, please indicate this when we confirm your reservation. Requests for specific parade seat placement will not be considered.

A limited bar will be available to purchase drinks during the first half of the parade. Keep in mind that glass containers are allowed on the River Walk during the parade.

Parking: Probably not! Biga usually is able to offer $10 parking on a first come first serve basis to our guests. HOWEVER, PARADE NIGHTS ARE PROBLEMATIC FOR ANY PARKING DOWNTOWN. WE SUGGEST RIDE SHARE SERVICES LIKE LYFT OR UBER to get you downtown.
