Highlights of Hollywood Forever Cemetery
Hollywood Forever Cemetery has been a place of lasting solitude and refuge for over 100 years and is listed on the National Register of Historic Places. Visitors can meander across acres of open-air green space and witness the expressive monuments that are consistent with the Hollywood flare that the world loves.
Amongst the highlights of the cemetery’s cultural events are the classic Hollywood film screenings where attendees flock to grab space on the lawn after sunset and enjoy an outdoor film with live music and, oftentimes, special guests. Another exciting cultural event here is the annual Dia de Los Muertos in November.

Helpful to know when visiting Hollywood Forever Cemetery
Hollywood Forever does currently function as a full-service funeral home and cemetery, so visitors are asked to exercise discretion when touring the grounds.
