The daytime event also features performances by Bob Baker Marionette Theatre, face painting, and arts & crafts vendors. (See website for activity times.)  Families are encouraged to attend in Day of the Dead attire.

This year's theme is Mayahuel – The Maguey Goddess. Mayahuel is the Aztec Goddess of Fertility, the Maguey (Agave), and the ruler of the 8th day and the 8th year. She brings us Love, Magic, and Transformation. She has dominion over Earth, the Night Sky, hallucinations, and intoxications: the Centzon Totochtin, 400 Drunken Rabbit Gods, are her children. Hollywood Forever's Día de los Muertos 2022 event acknowledges the griefs and miseries of recent years, gathering to celebrate the Gifts of Mayahuel and summon better days.
