Free festivals, parades, markets and light shows for Oct 23–25 — and the free dates coming up after. Pulled from the dates in Whosly's LA Festivals & Events list and updated every day.

Ten days of community ofrendas across Grand Park, free and open from morning to night. The Sunday-evening Noche de los Muertos closes it with music, dance and candles.
One free Saturday when the Bunker Hill institutions open up together: the Music Center, MOCA, the Broad, Disney Hall, Colburn and the library, with performances and workshops along Grand.
Nine nights of the novenario procession through El Pueblo, each ending with free pan de muerto and a hot drink. Altars line the plaza in the final days.
A bilingual family afternoon at the Mexican American museum beside Olvera Street: a community ofrenda, crafts and performances. Pair it with the plaza's procession that night.
A mile of Santa Monica Boulevard turns into a costume street party with stages, DJs and bars spilling out. Free; costumes expected. WeHo runs free late shuttles that night.
The Boyle Heights print studio, holding Día de los Muertos celebrations since the 1970s, throws this year's as a block party on Anderson Street with Los Lobos and La Santa Cecilia.
Beverly Hills switches on Rodeo Drive's holiday lights with a street party: music, snow, treats and stores open late. The lights then stay up into January.
Pasadena's absurdist answer to the Rose Parade: homemade costumes, kazoo bands and tortilla-throwing crowds, with no theme and no floats worth the name. Back after a year off.
