This is one of the most interesting LA activities. On Wednesday nights they play movies in the cemetery. Bring blankets, wine, packed dinner, all the fixings. You can bring food and drinks into the cemetery. Come very early to get in line (you can eat and drink in line as well) it will be worth it to get a good... More

This cemetry is amazing. The age and design of some of the headstones are incredible. This cemetry also features quite a few masoleums. There are also movie nights in the cemetry during the summer. Great fun! More

This is a little gem in Hollywood/Los Angeles that many seldom ever recognize as a 'site-seeing' venue. On warm summer nights, you can watch movies on the main lawn with the maulsoleum as the blank canvas for the featured movie. Bring a picnic lunch and plan to make friends. Parking is a bear, but well worth the effort. When planning... More

This is the place for a visit. You can stroll among the gravestones and in front of the mausoleum and be amazed at the names you read along the way. Take a camera so you can share with your friends who can't make it to Hollywood. Among those buried at Forever Cemetery are Charlie Chaplin, Charles Young, Tyrone Power, Jayne... More

Or so rumor has it. Some Hollywood legend are buried here, and it's fun to find the graves. If you know who Tyrone Power is, this is a great way to spend a couple of hours. If the name doesn't ring a bell, just come on weekend nights in the summer for the free movies they show outdoors. Seeing Valentino's... More

It may sound a little freaky, but the summer movies in the cemetery is quite possibly the coolest thing on the planet. More

Hands down- the best place in LA to see an outdoor rock show. Saw The Flaming Lips here. Nothing- compares! No nasty security to harsh your high. People are all in good moods. You can bring a picnic, wine and a blanket! For Daytime visits: Use the website gravefinder to locate all your favorite silver screen stars final resting places.... More
