Forest Lawn will bring traditional Día de los Muertos (Day of the Dead) customs to life with in-person events across four Southern California locations. The community celebrations will honor the memories of the dead while illuminating the rich history of the Mexican holiday with vibrant altars, larger-than-life Catrina and alebrijes (spirit guides) art works, folkloric dance and Mariachi performances, arts & crafts, face painting, and refreshments. The free, family-friendly events take place on Sunday, October 27, 2024, from 12:00-3:00 PM at Forest Lawn’s Cypress, Covina Hills, and Glendale locations. The event at Forest Lawn-Cathedral City will take place Saturday, November 2, 2024, from 12:00 – 3:00 PM.
