Featuring Coco, Music and Dance

Hosted by New Auburn Cemetery

In the Mexican town of Santa Cecilia, a young woman named Imelda marries a man who eventually leaves her and her daughter Coco to pursue a music career. When he never returns, Imelda banishes music from her family forever and starts a shoemaking business. Despite his family’s baffling generations-old ban on music, her grandson Miguel dreams of becoming an accomplished musician like his idol, Ernesto de la Cruz. Desperate to prove his talent, Miguel finds himself in the stunning and colorful Land of the Dead following a mysterious chain of events. Along the way, he meets charming trickster Hector, and together, they set off on an extraordinary journey to unlock the real story behind Miguel's family history. Special thanks to Stein & Sons Cremation & Burial Service for sponsoring COCO, and to The Kelty Family for sponsoring the live entertainment.
