Dia de los Muertos is fast approaching.
Come experience one of the colorful and enlightening traditions of the Mexican culture. This is an experience that is not to be missed. When I first attended this festival I was captivated and taken away to another world. I could not get enough. With Los Angeles's deep rooted Mexican culture Dia de los Muertos reminds us all how lucky we are to be a diverse city.
Parking is a nightmare it is easiest to take a Uber or Lyft if possible. If you want to brave it and park far feel free. Note there will be a lot of walking and festivities inside the event so wear comfortable shoes. If you would like to carpool please leave a message on this event and I will message you back. If not meet inside the gate at the front end of the large fountain that faces the two large entry gates. The fountain is directly in front of you as you walk in just walk down the main drive way. There may be alters and activities around the fountain. Because it is a very busy event try and arrive early and we will wait until 6:15 for you. If we miss you have fun and we will try to connect during the event through text messages.
Hollywood Forever’s 20th annual Dia de los Muertos celebration will take place on Saturday November 2nd, 2019. This year, our guiding theme is the Monarch Butterfly and its winter home, the Mexican state of Michoacán. Michoacán is also one of the two cultural heartlands in Mexico where the ancient traditions of Dia de los Muertos have been celebrated the longest and most vibrantly.
We also embrace the Monarch butterfly as a symbol of Dreamers and Immigrants whose personal journeys echo the annual migrations the butterflies make between Mexico and the U.S. The Monarch’s pending inclusion on the Endangered Species list is also an urgent call to love and protect our shared earth. As we celebrate our 20th Anniversary at Hollywood Forever, we share our gratitude for the beautiful migration of Dia de los Muertos from its homeland of Michoacán to the heart of Hollywood.
