Noche de las Memorias takes place annually on World AIDS Day on the first of December. It is an evening of reflection that is filled with music, inspirational speakers, remembrance, and prayer. At this empowering community event, new names are unveiled at The AIDS Monument in a special candle-lighting ceremony—the ceremony also coincides with the anniversary of the founding of The Wall Las Memorias Project.

Over 500 members from the community attend the annual event. Guests include members of the entertainment industry, local and state elected officials, leaders of faith-based organizations, labor members, LGBT activists as well as community leaders from across Los Angeles.
