Undas
Undas at the park
All Saints' and All Souls' Day bring families home. A little planning keeps the day peaceful for everyone.
Hours by date
| Date | Grounds open | Good to know |
|---|---|---|
| Days before 31 October | Regular hours | The best days to clean and decorate — the park is quiet. |
| 31 October | 6:00 AM – 10:00 PM | Evening visits allowed; expect traffic after 4 PM. |
| 1 November (All Saints' Day) | Open 24 hours | The busiest day of the year. Come early. |
| 2 November (All Souls' Day) | 6:00 AM – 10:00 PM | Busy until noon. |
Each year’s final schedule is posted on the news page in October.

Cleaning and repainting

Can’t come home this year?
Nasa malayo ka man, maaalagaan pa rin natin sila.
We will clean the grave, bring flowers and light a candle on the day, and send you photos.
