Celebrate the Day of the Dead this fall with Plaza de la Familia and a Coco show in Disney California Adventure.
The Storytellers of Plaza de la Familia Celebrate Coco
The show is performed in Paradise Gardens, in front of the Plaza de la Familia archway. The show is hosted by Alma and Ramone. With their fellow storytellers, they tell the story of Coco.
The show kicks off with The World Es Me Familia. Young guests are invited to use shoe contraptions to dance.
The performers then sing Mexican folk song La Llorona, which is also featured in Coco.
Throughout the show, more pictures are revealed on the storytellers’ cart. It ultimately creates an ofrenda with images of Héctor, Mama Coco, and Mama Imelda.
Miguel arrives in puppet form to assist with the performance of Remember Me. He then performs Un Poco Loco.
Small puppets of Pepita and Dante as Alebrijes join the show, along with life-size skeleton puppets.
Miguel ends the show with a snippet of Proud Corazón, the finale song from Coco.
The Coco show is performed at the following times:
- 12:00 p.m.
