Assuming that the MPLS VPN in question is a service provider based
VPN, then the frist thing to do is ask your service provide if they
support Multicast VPN (MVPN).

If they do not, then you would need to set up GRE tunnels between you
CE routers in order to propogate the multicast traffic.

To assist responders, you should provide more informaiton about your
VPN network - like how many CE routers there are, what IOS version
they are running ,what is the CE-PE routing protocol in use, what is
the nature of the multicast traffic that you are trying to forward -
i.e. hub to spoke, etc, etc.
