Now that her astonishing Coachella set is behind us, Angelenos can partake in the mayhem too: Lady Gaga will bring her Mayhem Ball tour to the Forum this summer. Expect Mayhem’s dance-pop return to work its way into much of the set alongside plenty of old favorites.
We don’t know about you, but our mind is always focused on the weekend. It can never come soon enough—which is why we’re already thinking about what new restaurants we want to try or where we can drive for the day. Whether you’re looking to scope out the latest museum exhibitions or watch a movie outdoors, you’ll find plenty of things to do in L.A. this weekend.
We curate an L.A. weekend itinerary of the city’s best concerts, culture and cuisine, every week, just for you. August kicks off this weekend, and the hottest ticket in town is Jesus Christ Superstar at the Hollywood Bowl, starring Cynthia Erivo, Adam Lambert, Josh Gad and Phillipa Soo. Meanwhile in Inglewood, Lady Gaga closes out a string of concerts at the Forum, and HARD Summer takes over Hollywood Park next to SoFi. For some free fun: esperanza spalding plays a complimentary concert under the stars at the Music Center, the Wende Museum holds its first Zine Fest, and the Friends of the L.A. River host their annual RiverFest. And down in Huntington Beach, spectators will gather at the shore to watch the final weekend of the U.S. Open of Surfing.
