The Plaza de la Familia is located in one of my favorite sections of Disney California Adventure, Paradise Gardens. The experience honors the Mexican traditions of Día de los Muertos.
Stunning marigold decor, upbeat entertainment, and fun crafts will entertain Guests from September 1 through November 2, 2023. In addition, Paradise Garden Grill will offer some delicious Mexican food, you won’t want to miss!

This area really comes to life during the event, with characters from Coco highlighted throughout the experience. One of my favorite elements this time of year is the music!
Make sure to catch “A Musical Celebration of Coco!” Performed several times throughout the day, it includes Folklórico dancers, Mariachi singers, and musicians!

If you love Disney characters, say hello to Miguel, who’ll be available for a meet and greet! The festivities aren’t excluded to Paradise Gardens…
Día de los Muertos
Head to Cars Land and you’ll find Ramone, who pays tribute to Día de los Muertos at his shop. His ofrenda honors his friend, Doc Hudson.

Over at Disneyland, you’ll notice Día de los Muertos on display in Frontierland. Look for the marigolds and traditional, colorful, punched paper (papel picado).
There is so much to enjoy when Halloween Time returns to the Happiest Place on Earth. Make sure to experience the Plaza de la Familia and Día de los Muertos if you’re visiting Disneyland this fall!
