DETAILS:

Graceland Cemetery is one of Chicago’s finest hidden treasures, a serene and vibrant park-like cemetery on the bustling North Side. Graceland is the final resting place to many prominent Chicago figures, including athletes, politicians, industrialists and many of the finest architects of the last century. Designed by visionary landscape architects, including O.C. Simonds, Graceland offers a glimpse into the past while creating a beautiful place for all to enjoy. Even after 150 years, Graceland remains an active cemetery and arboretum.

The Flash Taco Food Truck will be onsite and in the pedestrian plaza area just inside our main entrance gates at Irving Park and Clark from 10 am to 2 pm on Saturday.
