Time Out says

The slow, lumbering mission to turn Downtown L.A. into a vibrant cultural hub got a lift when a portion of Grand Park’s 12 acres officially opened to the public in July 2012. Dotted with fountains, picnic lawns, bright pink benches and plenty of nooks from which to sit and people-watch, Grand Park is a bright urban oasis that proves the city has a sense of romance. The park plays host to performances, gatherings and other community events, notably a Fourth of July Block Party, Día de Muertos celebration and the massive NYELA Countdown on the last night of the year.

What’s on

Gloria Molina Grand Park’s Block Party

Back in July, Grand Park’s annual block party, which was set to be the largest free Independence Day celebration on the West Coast, was postponed due to safety concerns. But a new date—September 6—has finally been announced for the event, which has been reimagined as a love letter to Los Angeles. Just over two months from its original date, the park will host DJ sets courtesy of KCRW Summer Nights, food trucks, art and a drone show that will “emphasize L.A. communities’ resilience and honor Angelenos’ capacity for joy amid hardships.” The party’s theme of homegrown resilience will be echoed in its art installations and activities: An area called “Little L.A.” will re-create an interactive journey through the county’s immigrant enclaves, complete with dances, storytelling, a scavenger hunt and a chalk-drawn map of L.A.’s freeways. Meanwhile, an art walk will display interactive art and intimate portraits of life in L.A. The event is Metro-accessible via the Civic Center/Grand Park station (though $10 parking is also available at the Music Center and Walt Disney Concert Hall).
