On November 1st and 2nd in Haiti, streets are filled with music, drums, and people dancing to celebrate another year of life. People also go to cemeteries to clean, offer food, sing, and dance.
Vodou practitioners, dressed in purple, black, and white, often hold a community gathering that consists of a large procession through the city for Gede and for all the dead. These processions are attended by houngan, manbo, hounsi kanzo, and ''sèvitè'' lwa from all the local peristyl (Vodou temples), and usually end in the cemetery with a ceremony.
It also is a day to give back, so many people cook large meals to share and give freely to others.
Most Vodou practitioners, to set a place for their ancestors, lay out a white cloth (the color of the ancestors) and place new candles. They also set a bowl of water with mint and basil on it. They make their family’s favorite foods.
