Santa Monica’s 150th Celebration Grand Finale

For the past six months, the city of Santa Monica has been celebrating its 150th birthday. This weekend, the festivities wrap up with a free cultural festival and community gathering at Third Street Promenade, which will fill the pedestrian-only stretch with live music, art activations and family-friendly fun. Highlights include performances by Captain Planet, the Gumbo Brothers and more, hands-on creative workshops, exhibitions on the city’s history, free ice cream from McConnell’s and more—coinciding with the annual holiday-season SANTA Monica Pub Crawl for charity.
