Día de los Muertos at Disney Parks: Tradition, Tribute & Timeless Celebration

WhereInThePark.com Episode 24

In this heartfelt episode of Where In The Park, we’re honoring Día de los Muertos — a beautiful tradition of remembrance that Disney respectfully brings to life each fall.

Join us as we explore the history of the holiday, the meaning behind its symbols (marigolds, papel picado, calaveras), and how these traditions are celebrated in the parks — from the Rancho del Zócalo display at Disneyland to Plaza de la Familia at California Adventure and the Remember Me! exhibit at EPCOT.

Learn how Pixar’s Coco helped shape new experiences, how Disney Imagineers like Dan Torres contributed to the park tributes, and why this isn’t just a seasonal overlay — it’s a celebration of legacy and life.
