Los Angeles Weekly Events: Music, Art, Food and Local Things to Do

Los Angeles has events happening every week, from concerts and art shows to food festivals, theater, museum programs, nightlife, community gatherings and outdoor activities. Because the city is large, weekly event planning works best when organized by neighborhood.

This Los Angeles weekly events guide explains how to find things to do and how to build a simple event plan without wasting time in traffic.

Types of Weekly Events in Los Angeles

Los Angeles events can include live music, comedy, film screenings, art walks, gallery openings, food markets, sports, cultural festivals and family activities. The variety is one of the best parts of the city.

For music-focused ideas, read our Concerts of Los Angeles guide.

Art and Culture Events

Art events are common in Downtown LA, museums, galleries, creative districts and community spaces. These events can include exhibitions, open studios, performances and local artist showcases.

Food and Nightlife Events

Food events, restaurant specials, markets, tastings and nightlife gatherings are also part of weekly life in Los Angeles. These events are a good way to explore new neighborhoods and local businesses.

For dining and evening ideas, read our Los Angeles Restaurants guide and our California Los Angeles Clubs article.

Planning Events by Neighborhood

Because Los Angeles traffic can be heavy, it is smart to choose events in the same general area. For example, plan a Downtown evening, a Hollywood concert night or a Santa Monica beach and dinner day.

Our Los Angeles Transportation guide can help you plan routes, parking and travel time.

Where to Stay for Events

If you are visiting Los Angeles for events, choose a hotel near the activities that matter most to you. Staying close to your event area can save time and reduce transportation costs.

Use our Los Angeles Hotels guide to compare Downtown LA, Hollywood, Beverly Hills, Santa Monica, West Hollywood and LAX hotels.
