For one summer in 1987, a carnival popped up in Germany with traditional rides adorned with artwork by Salvador Dalí, Jean-Michel Basquiat, Keith Haring, David Hockney, Sonia Delaunay and a couple dozen others. And then… it kind of just vanished, sent off into storage for decades. But now, thanks to a couple of art world partners and Drake, Luna Luna has been revived in L.A., restored and reassembled in a soundstage in Boyle Heights through May 12. Though you can’t climb aboard the rides here, the atmosphere is magical and—for contemporary art fans for sure—worth the relatively steep price of admission. On the other hand, as alluring as that reflective Dalídome is though, we’d say that splurging on a VIP pass (which comes with a couple of other perks) isn’t worth it just to snap a photo inside of it.

Who has a hangover-fueled appetite and loves brunch? We do. But we also love greeting the morning with a hike or shopping the afternoon away at a sample sale. As far as events, Saturdays in L.A. tend to be the most packed day of the week, with screenings, festivals and all sorts of one-off affairs worth your time. However you choose to spend your Saturday, you’ll find plenty of things to do in L.A.
