When Aztecs wanted to have fun, they danced, sang, ate, and drank. They also played sports. Nobles held big feasts.
Even the poor were part of the many festivals that celebrated happy times. Aztec life had a lot of special events. These included the opening of a new temple and welcoming warriors home. Others could be the death of a ruler or the rise of a new one. Along with religious rituals, there were other important ceremonies, like the birth and naming of a baby. Others had to do with starting or finishing school, marriage, and death.
