The starcast, almost everyone in black, gathered on the Paramount studio lot for the memorial. It is where Glee's auditorium scenes are filmed.
Michele joined producer Ryan Murphy and costars including Kevin McHale and Darren Criss at the event where guests mingled, dined on buffet food and listened to tunes like "Good Vibrations" in Monteith's honour, reported People magazine
Each of the over 150 attendees (including Chord Overstreet, who was seen carrying a guitar) sported black ribbons as a tribute to the late actor, who was found dead in a Vancouver hotel room at the age of 31.
In a statement, Fox said, "Today, Ryan Murphy and Lea Michele gathered the cast, crew and producers of Glee, along with colleagues from the network and studio, to share memories and music in an emotional celebration of the life of Cory Monteith.
"We thank the public for their continued outpouring of love and support as we grieve our friend and colleague during this difficult time."
The 'Glee' cast will resume production in early August. The series will honoir Monteith's character, Finn Hudson, in a special tribute episode this fall.
