Time Out says

With its rolling green hills and replica European churches, Forest Lawn feels more like a fairy landscape than a traditional cemetery. Though some of old Hollywood's elite—Lauren Bacall, Humphrey Bogart, Clark Gable, Sammy Davis Jr. and Mary Pickford—are interred in areas closed to the public, you can pay your respects to cultural luminaries like L. Frank Baum, Elizabeth Taylor, Michael Jackson and Walt Disney. Step inside of the free hilltop museum and you'll find an impressive stained glass collection alongside temporary exhibitions, everything from the Old Masters to contemporary poster artists.

What’s on

Día de los Muertos at Forest Lawn

SoCal’s most recognizable cemetery chain—we’re not the only ones who think it’s strange that’s a thing, right?—is honoring the dead with Día de los Muertos celebrations at four of its locations. The Glendale, Cypress, Covina Hills and Cathedral City locations all host festivities complete with altars, six-foot-tall Catrinas, hand-painted alebrijes, folklorico dance and mariachi performances—and even Bob Baker Marionette performances at the first three locations. Cathedral City hosts its celebration on the following evening, November 2 (5–8pm).
