Time Out says

Considered the focal point of Santa Monica Beach, Santa Monica Pier includes Pacific Park, a traditional set-up stocked with a Ferris wheel, aquarium, fairground games and cotton candy stands. On warm weekends, the stretch is busy with families, beach bums and gym bunnies, who work out in public at the original Muscle Beach just south of the pier. Lately, the Pier has played host to a number of outdoor film and music events, bringing a hipper clientele to the boardwalk.

What’s on

Family Pride at the Crow

Bergamot Station’s inclusive comedy club, the Crow, hosts this family-friendly Pride event filled with music, stand-up and storytelling. The programming on June 21 kicks off with “Fabulous Fables” at 10am, with drag queen and king storytelling, face painting, dancing and a family pride parade at the Santa Monica Pier. That evening at the Crow, “Pull My Finger” is a “super silly and high energy show” for the whole family at 5pm. Ending the night are two “Storyectomy Family Pride” shows, where LGBTQ+ community members and allies will get their personal and comedic stories out alongside pro comedians (7pm and 9pm).

Pride on the Santa Monica Pier

The day after free SaMo Pride is this ticketed daylong dance party at the pier, with sets by live performers and DJs (the lineup has yet to be announced) taking place amid the rides and games of Pacific Park. Show up early (before 3pm) if you want to save on tickets. A portion of proceeds will support victims of the 2025 wildfires, as well as the Santa Monica Queer Prom.
