Things to do in L.A. this weekend

Things to do in L.A. this weekend

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.

The best things to do in Malibu

The best things to do in Malibu

While some associate Malibu with mansions perched atop cliffs and surfers bobbing on the breaks, we tend to tie the city to L.A.’s most stunning natural wonders. Forget the tarnished glitz of Hollywood and the posh photo ops of Beverly Hills; these things to do in Malibu make us question why we don’t spend every single weekend in the waterfront city. From some of the best beaches around to hiking trails with waterfalls—and a little bit of wine tasting and waterfront restaurants to wind down—we’ve rounded up our favorite things to do in Malibu. Just a heads up that you’re probably going to need a car to visit most of these spots. Malibu’s scenic landmarks largely hug the Pacific Coast Highway and the beachfront, which runs from west of Pacific Palisades to the Ventura County border. While Metro’s 134 bus will take you about as far west as Zuma Beach, you’ll need your own wheels (or a rideshare—cell reception willing) to venture into the more remote coastline to the west, as well as the canyon communities and most of the hiking trails to the north in the Santa Monica Mountains.

The best beaches in Los Angeles

The best beaches in Los Angeles

With 70-degree-plus days nearly year-round, Angelenos are spoiled with things to do outside. Whether it’s January or July, L.A.’s best hikes (including hikes with waterfalls) are rarely off the table—and the same can even be said for beaches, too. Now, you might not exactly want to actually go in the water (even in late summer the ocean temperature barely hits 70), but you’ll certainly want to be by the water. And with miles of picturesque coastline from Malibu to the South Bay, the best beaches in Los Angeles are aplenty for outdoor enthusiasts, surfers, families, sun worshippers and beach bunnies (and at a couple of dog beaches, for pups). If you’re new to L.A., there are a few oceanfront weather basics you should know: On hot days, the beach is typically 10 degrees cooler than central parts of L.A. and 20 degrees cooler than the Valley. (The exception: Long Beach tends to be in lockstep with L.A. temps.) Sometimes—particularly toward the beginning of summer—you might have clear blue skies inland but the beach is all fogged in; that marine layer tends to burn off in the afternoon, but sometimes it sticks around all day. From Venice and Santa Monica to Manhattan Beach and Playa Vista, here are the best beaches in L.A. to sunbathe, surf, and play. RECOMMENDED: See the best things to do in Los Angeles

Amazing places to go camping near Los Angeles

Amazing places to go camping near Los Angeles

Oddly enough, one of the very best things about living in L.A. is how quickly you can embark on a road trip (or even a day trip) and get out of L.A. for a much-needed respite. And when it comes to the top places to go camping near Los Angeles, locals are in luck. From spending a night on sandy beach to stargazing in some of the best national parks in the U.S., there are a ton of great options that are within driving distance—and will make you totally forget about the city.

The 8 best things to do in Venice Beach

The 8 best things to do in Venice Beach

Look past the T-shirt shops and street performers and you’ll find just enough things to do in Venice that are downright pleasant and—dare we say—borderline charming. For starters, you might wonder: Is Venice Beach actually worth visiting? We’d say yes, with a few caveats. Many visitors make a beeline for the grungy Venice Boardwalk, an admittedly iconic L.A. attraction, but a kind of disappointing one. There’s so much more to see beyond the boardwalk, from a swanky canal community to destination-worthy Venice restaurants to patches of sand that rank among L.A.’s best beaches—and for all those reasons we’d say the beachside neighborhood is ultimately worth your time. Whether you’re visiting from out of state or just across town (which thanks to L.A. traffic can feel like you’ve crossed state lines), these are the things to do in Venice that we recommend adding to your itinerary.

The 16 best things to do in Santa Monica

The 16 best things to do in Santa Monica

Surrounded by mountains on one side and the beach on another, the urban sprawl of Los Angeles seems to melt away as soon as you hit Santa Monica. This beachside city has a charm all of its own and is the essence of that classic postcard picture of Southern California—yes, including a bit of an upscale air in spots and plenty of traffic. But we’re not here to complain about the 10 or PCH. Instead, we’re here to help you fill your free time—ideally that coveted, less-trafficked window between morning rush hour and happy hour or after sunset—with the very best things to in Santa Monica, including its most essential attractions.

Best in Low: Lowrider Icons of the Street and Show

Best in Low: Lowrider Icons of the Street and Show

It’s more than just the low clearance: This exhibition at the Petersen explores the custom paint, engraving, upholstery and, of course, the gravity-defying suspension of the lowrider scene. In addition to iconic cars, the exhibit spotlights influential artists in the Chicano lowrider art scene. Even if you have no interest in cars, this colorful showcase of 20-plus lowered cars and bikes is excellent: The candy-colored paint jobs are dazzling, and the craftsmanship of the customizations—many vehicles are on display with their engines and undercarriages visible—is remarkable. You’ll learn a little bit of history here, how the “low and slow” movement is rooted in the postwar Mexican American zoot suit counterculture, but largely this is an excuse to ogle some L.A. automotive icons.

Grand Performances

Grand Performances

This epic (and free) outdoor concert series features live performances by artists from around the world at the totally overhauled California Plaza stage in DTLA, where the shallow water separating the stage from the audience has been replaced by a proper event lawn. Don’t miss a diverse and highly intriguing mix of bands, DJ sets and dance parties.

KT Glassworks

KT Glassworks

This West Adams glass studio specializes in colorful, flowing decor and custom commissions, but we think most Angelenos will be interested in its excellent glassblowing classes. If you’ve always been entranced by molten glass, the expense is absolutely worth it for the three-hour single-student ($330) or four-hour two-student ($250 per person) lessons, in which you’ll get some hands-on assistance as you sculpt and blow orbs, birds, vases and bowls. If you already know what you’re doing, you can also opt for reserving some studio time with particular pieces of equipment.

Netflix is a Joke Fest

Netflix is a Joke Fest

Netflix’s stand-up specials keep us cackling at home, but the streaming service’s ambitious comedy festival is nothing to laugh at. For its second iteration, Netflix is a Joke Fest is headed back here May 1 to 12, 2024 and upping the ante: We’ve counted over 500 shows slated for three dozen venues with sets from Ali Wong, Jerry Seinfeld, Jim Gaffigan, Chris Rock, Taylor Tomlinson and literally hundreds of others (we’ve highlighted 10 of the most unique offerings to help narrow things down). The event is a bit more of a marathon than a traditional festival: There’s not an all-encompassing festival pass, but you can buy individual tickets to shows throughout its run. The exception is Outside Joke, an outdoor event set up in a parking lot behind the Palladium. You’ll find a mix of music, drag and stand-up—hosted by the likes of Atsuko Okatsuka, Leslie Jones and Reggie Watts, among others—alongside a couple of carnival games plus food, drinks and merch. Unlike the 2022 version, which was free, you can access the area on a first-come, first-served basis if you have a ticket to any other Netflix is a Joke Fest show, or you can guarantee entry with a $25 day pass. Just a heads up that if you enter Outside Joke at the same time as doors open for a show at the Palladium, you may find yourself stuck in a security line that wraps around the block; otherwise the two venues have separate lines. Elsewhere, you’ll find shows staged at venues as big as the Hollywood Bowl and Greek Theatre (a

Coachella

Coachella

Nearly 125,000 music lovers make a pilgrimage to the Empire Polo Club during each identical weekend of Coachella, whether bound for campgrounds or shuttling over from golf resorts and midcentury modern homes. Though its bespoke dining experiences and hotel party scene may try to steal headlines, Coachella remains about the relaxed desert air euophoria of a well-curated music festival. Coachella’s all-embracing three-day lineup consistently crafts the pool of performers from which all other summer music festivals borrow. RECOMMENDED: See our complete Coachella coverage

Pixar Fest at Disneyland Resort

Pixar Fest at Disneyland Resort

Back for the first time since 2018, Disneyland celebrates decades’ worth of Pixar films with this resort-wide seasonal event. In addition to familiar Pixar characters adorning sculptures and medallions across the grounds, you’ll find some limited-timed entertainment offerings: fireworks show “Together Forever – A Pixar Nighttime Spectacular” and the family-focused Pixar Pals Playtime Party at Disneyland, and over at Disney California Adventure the “Better Together: A Pixar Pals Celebration” parade and the photo-op–filled Club Pixar. From April 26 through August 4, you’ll also find a staggering amount of Pixar-themed food and merch across the pair of theme parks.

A Night of ‘Stop Making Sense’

A Night of ‘Stop Making Sense’

Talking Heads’ 1984 concert film Stop Making Sense is a flat-out musical and cinematic masterpiece, and last year’s 4K restoration dusted off the rock-doc for a whole new generation. Now, ahead of A24’s Blu-ray release of the film, you can catch a screening of it on June 4 at Hollywood’s Pantages Theatre—where it was originally shot over four nights—with a Q&A led by Fred Armisen (who’s no stranger to the film) with the members of Talking Heads. David Byrne, Chris Frantz, Tina Weymouth and Jerry Harrison were all in attendance at a screening at Vidiots last year, and like that event, we wouldn’t expect the more or less broken up band to perform. But you will see Blondshell tackling “Thank You for Sending Me an Angel,” from the forthcoming Everyone’s Getting Involved tribute album.

Sunday Afternoon Concerts in the Dome

Sunday Afternoon Concerts in the Dome

Listen to classical and jazz in a dome more than a mile above L.A. during this mountaintop concert series. The Mount Wilson Observatory is hosting monthly concerts this summer inside the dome of its 100-inch Hooker telescope, which was the largest telescope in the world for much of the first half of the 20th century. Tickets cost $60 (that also includes access to the exhibit at the observatory) and it’s highly recommended that you buy them in advance since seating is limited. You’ll need to be able to climb 53 steps to reach the dome, and children under 12 aren’t permitted. 

Sargent Claude Johnson

Sargent Claude Johnson

You might’ve noticed Johnson’s beautifully carved and gilded redwood organ screen on recent visits to the Huntington. Now, for the first time in four decades, you can see it paired with other pieces he created for the California School for the Blind in Berkeley, California, including a room full of other remarkable wood friezes that accompanied it. You’ll also find plenty of other examples of Johnson’s—an overlooked West Coast link in the Harlem Renaissance—extraordinary sculpture work, including his busts that borrowed from both modernism and traditional African masks and his Assyrian-meets-Art Deco athletics-inspired relief created for a Bay Area school.

Wild Things Are Happening: The Art of Maurice Sendak

Wild Things Are Happening: The Art of Maurice Sendak

Let the wild rumpus start at this celebration of beloved children’s author and illustrator Maurice Sendak. The Skirball Cultural Center is displaying more than 150 sketches, storyboards and paintings from the Where the Wild Things Are creator. “Wild Things Are Happening: The Art of Maurice Sendak” debuted at the Columbus Museum of Art in 2022 and has since sailed off (metaphorically speaking) to visit L.A. from April 18 through September 1. As you might expect, Where the Wild Things Are receives the biggest spotlight in the exhibition, with beautiful crosshatched artwork, translations of books, monster-themed merch and even costumes from the Spike Jonze film. In addition to his own books, In the Night Kitchen and Outside Over There among them, the exhibition also features art that Sendak created for a handful of other authors, most notably Else Holmelund Minarik’s Little Bear, as well designs for Mozart operas. The show also focuses on his personal and family life, with insight on his Jewish upbringing, some very early drawings (including one of Mickey Mouse he created when he was just six years old) and lots about how his beloved dogs inspired and integrated into his books. Admission costs $18 for adults, with discounts for students, seniors and children; it’s completely free to visit on Thursdays. Look out for the adorable living room setup near the entrance, too—it hosts story time Thursday through Sunday at 3pm.

ED RUSCHA / NOW THEN

ED RUSCHA / NOW THEN

Oof. Honk. Spam. Ed Ruscha’s laconic canvases are familiar fixtures for L.A. museumgoers, and LACMA has brought them all together in this major, floor-filling retrospective. Ruscha’s background in commercial art is evident in the big, bold text that draws your attention in his earliest Pop art paintings. But so too is his fascination with urbanism and infrastructure: the vibrant colors and sharp angles of his Standard station paintings, the black-and-white shapes of his catalog of L.A. apartments, the mesmerizing aerial shots of some of L.A.’s largest parking lots and his meticulous photos of the Sunset Strip. The retrospective also presents the opportunity to see the fiery painting Los Angeles County Museum of Art on Fire on display at LACMA for the first time ever, as well as a reconstruction of his Chocolate Room (which, yes, is a distinct-smelling room made out sheets upon sheets of chocolate).

Cinespia Cemetery Screenings

Cinespia Cemetery Screenings

It isn’t summer in L.A. until the first cemetery screening brings hoards of movie-lovers to Hollywood Forever, toting folding chairs, picnic blankets, snack spreads and lots of booze. Each year, Cinespia brings classic cult favorites to the hallowed resting place of such Hollywood greats as Rudolph Valentino and Bugsy Siegel. The series typically releases its slate one month at a time, with summertime screenings at the cemetery and a few off-site ones on either end (including at L.A. State Historic Park and, for the first time, at the Rose Bowl). For each evening at Hollywood Forever Cemetery, pack a picnic (yes, booze is allowed), pose in the photo booth and enjoy DJ sets, dance parties and all sorts of other magical mischief that’d otherwise be strictly forbidden behind the cemetery gates. The outdoor screenings are an L.A. rite of passage, a quintessential summer experience and one of the best film venues in the city. Just be sure to get your ticket early, arrive early, pee early… it’s a popular affair, to say the least.

没入型アート体験「Meow Wolf」がロサンゼルスに進出

没入型アート体験「Meow Wolf」がロサンゼルスに進出

ポップアップであれ、半永久的なものであれ、イベントや展覧会がただ売上を伸ばすためだけに「没入型」を自称し、宣伝文句の中でその単語を巧みに使うことは多い。しかし、「秘密の通路」「触れることのできる装飾」「大量のネオン」などで世界を完全に作り込んでいる「Meow Wolf」は、その期待を裏切らない没入型体験ブランドの一つといえるだろう。 もうすぐロサンゼルスの人々が、それを州外に出ずに自分の目で確かめられるようになる。 2026年、同市にMeow Wolfの常設施設をオープンすることが発表されたのだ。 Meow Wolf社はロサンゼルスでの展開について、街の映画製作の歴史からデザインのヒントを得た「最大主義的ファンタジー」と説明。「映画の神話」「ミステリアスな作品の誕生」「不条理なきらびやかさ」「ハリウッドがかけた幻想的な魔法」といったこの街ならでは要素を取り込もうとしているようだ。彼らは、Meow Wolfの体験を「説明するのは難しいが、楽しむのは簡単だ」と表現しているが、まさにそういうことなのだろう。 Meow Wolfは2008年にサンタフェで誕生して以来、ラスベガス、デンバー、ダラスで「異世界へいざなう徒歩体験」を提供。ヒューストンでのオープンも控えている。また、プロジェクト全体でタイムアウトが選んだの全米最高の没入型体験ランキングでトップの座を獲得したこともある。 Photograph: Courtesy Atlas MediaOmega Mart 「Meow Wolfロサンゼルス」の具体的なロケーションについて、プレスリリースでは旧映画館の建物を活用することが示唆されているが、ロサンゼルス・タイムズ紙はもう少し踏み込んでリポートしている。それによると、ウェストロサンゼルスの空きシネマコンプレックスが有力のようだ。 同エリアで思いつくのはピコ地区の「Westside Pavilion」モールにあった「Landmark」だけだが、すでにカリフォルニア大学がモール全体を研究センターとして利用中だ。エリアを広げると、サンタモニカプレイスの旧「ArcLight」はまだ空いているが、すでに「Arte Museum」となる計画が進んでいる。Meow Wolfに適した物件がほかにもあるのだろうか。 Meow Wolfの共同創設者であり、Meow Wolfロサンゼルスのシニアクリエーティブディレクターであるショーン・ディ・イアニは、声明の中で次のように話している。 「私たちは何年もの間、この街を訪れて重層的で変化し続ける創造性のネットワークの中で何かを生み出すことを夢見てきました。 ロサンゼルスは単なる物理的な場所ではなく、人間の想像力の世界的な風景の奥深くに広がっており、常にその限界を押し広げているのです。新しいロサンゼルスの展示施設はアート、物語、インタラクティブ性が相まった予測不可能なタペストリーを織ることで、この街の映画的地平線を広げていきます」 関連記事 『The wildly immersive Meow Wolf is opening a location in L.A.(原文)』 『2024年に行くべき新施設9選』 『巡回展「鈴木敏夫とジブリ展」が横須賀美術館で開催中』 『麻布台ヒルズの新たな「チームラボボーダレス」4つの新作とは?』 『「ぐでたまかふぇ」がロサンゼルス郊外にオープン』 『サンフランシスコとロサンゼルスを結ぶ新しい夜行列車が登場』 東京の最新情報をタイムアウト東京のメールマガジンでチェックしよう。登録はこちら  

We have some notes about John Mulaney’s map of L.A.

We have some notes about John Mulaney’s map of L.A.

Amid the 500-plus comedy shows that Netflix is a Joke Fest has brought to L.A., stand-up John Mulaney is hosting a late-night-style talk show that airs live on Netflix throughout this week. John Mulaney Presents Everybody’s in L.A. streamed its first episode last Friday, and its oddball mix of banal city life scenes and celebrity interviews truly tapped into the singularly weird and wonderful sensation of life in L.A.—“the city that confuses and fascinates me” as Mulaney put it in the intro. In the first of six episodes, Tony Tucci, codirector of Citizens for Los Angeles Wildlife, shared the interview couch with Jerry Seinfeld, who was busy complaining about L.A. traffic. On-location segments covered everything from fishing in Echo Park Lake to a cement mixer stuck in the mud, there was a call-in block about coyotes and the rest of the guest lineup included Ray J, St. Vincent and, uh, a food delivery robot. After a title sequence with shots of sunsets and freeways, a sidewalk trompo and the one-eyed Minion by the 101 (all set to Wang Chung’s “To Live and Die in L.A.”), Mulaney walked into an Encino-meets-Topanga living room set and pulled down a map to roast LAPD response times, dunk on Downtown L.A. and answer a question that we too grapple with all the time: What do we mean by “L.A.”? “Well look at this beautiful organic shape, not at all cynically designed to go down to the harbor,” he said as he started to dive into the City of L.A.’s irregularly shaped borders. But here’

A ‘Fast & Furious’ roller coaster is coming to Universal Studios Hollywood in 2026

If you’re the kind of person who lives your life a quarter mile at a time—and maybe has the patience to wait in a line that long—then you’re probably going to be pretty revved up to hear that there’s a Fast & Furious roller coaster coming to Universal Studios Hollywood. First announced in 2023, the theme park officially gave the attraction a name and opening window today: “Fast & Furious: Hollywood Drift” will debut in 2026. In addition, Universal detailed that the high-speed attraction, which you’ll enter via a red brick garage in the park’s upper lot, will feature ride vehicles (inspired by some of the films’ cars, of course) that can rotate 360 degrees in order to mimic the sensation of drifting. From groundbreaking technology to breathtaking immersion, there is no other roller coaster like Fast & Furious: Hollywood Drift. Coming in 2026. Get details: https://t.co/So3clSAZfg pic.twitter.com/M42Fs4nhZJ — Universal Studios Hollywood (@UniStudios) May 3, 2024 This all tracks with the park’s initial announcement last year, which promised an “all-new thrill ride” with “innovative and technological achievements never previously employed” and a “state-of-the-art ride system uniquely created to engulf guests within the dynamic Fast & Furious universe.” The theme park acknowledged the beginning of the roller coaster’s construction last July, which was its first major ride announcement since the opening of Super Nintendo World. If you’ve visited since then, you’ve probably notic

The wildly immersive Meow Wolf is opening a location in L.A.

The wildly immersive Meow Wolf is opening a location in L.A.

Most installations, whether a pop-up or semi-permanent, that describe themselves as “immersive” toss around the phrase as a marketing gimmick. But Meow Wolf—known for its fully-enveloped environments replete with secret passages, touchable decor and tons of neon—is one of the few experiences that actually lives up to that promise. Soon, Angelenos will get to see for themselves without venturing outside of the state as Meow Wolf announced today that it’ll be opening a permanent exhibition in Los Angeles in 2026, its sixth such space. The company describes the L.A. location as a “maximalist fantasy” that takes design cues from the city’s history of filmmaking, including “cinematic mythos, mysterious eggs, absurd glitz [and] the fantastical spells cast by Hollywood.” (You might not be shocked to find out that they also describe their experiences as “hard to explain but easy to enjoy.”) Photograph: Courtesy Atlas MediaMeow Wolf Denver Meow Wolf started in Sante Fe in 2008, and since then its artist collective has built transportive walk-throughs in that city as well as Las Vegas, Denver and Dallas, with a Houston location on the way. Collectively, their locations have earned the top spot in Time Out’s list of the country’s best immersive experiences. An official release from the company only hints that it’ll reside in a movie theater, but a report in the L.A. Times narrows things down to a vacant complex in West Los Angeles—though it’s unclear if that means the 405-adjacent nei

Bar do Porto volta a estar entre os melhores da Península Ibérica

Bar do Porto volta a estar entre os melhores da Península Ibérica

Todos os anos, os Top Cocktail Bars elegem os melhores entre os melhores a nível ibérico. Esta semana, o The Royal Cocktail Club consolidou a sua posição enquanto bar de elite da cidade do Porto, ao manter a estrela anteriormente concedida pela mesma organização. "Manter a nossa posição elevada no ranking valida a aposta que temos feito na inovação e em todo o processo criativo, não esquecendo o nosso foco em pontos indispensáveis de serviço: a hospitalidade e a simpatia", afirma Carlos Santiago, head bartender e gerente do bar, em comunicado. Localizado num edifício histórico do Porto, o The Royal Cocktail Club abriu em 2017 e desde então que aposta na coquetelaria de autor e nas receitas de assinatura, que naturalmente também são um regalo para a vista (e para as redes sociais). Mais uma vez, foi distinguido por este júri internacional que anualmente se dedica a nomear os melhores bares de Portugal e Espanha, a partir de um conjunto de candidatos auto-propostos. No Porto, este é o único bar estrelado pelas mãos dos Top Cocktail Bars, embora também o Torto tenha merecido destaque por parte da mesma organização. Em Lisboa, são já dois os bares com três estrelas, a classificação máxima – Quattro Teste e Red Frog –, e ainda o Monkey Mash com duas estrelas. Rua da Fábrica, 105. Dom-Qui 19.0-02.00, Sex-Sáb 19.00-03.00 + Está quase. Faltam três dias para o Time Out Market Porto abrir as portas + Uma doca, um novo restaurante e um tratamento de spa intravenoso.

Em Agosto, o jazz volta a casa (pela 40.ª vez)

Em Agosto, o jazz volta a casa (pela 40.ª vez)

Tem arranque marcado para o dia 1 de Agosto e durante 11 dias vai devolver à Gulbenkian a sua dose estival de jazz. No ano em que o Jazz em Agosto chega à sua 40.ª edição, são 17 os concertos que se espalham por três palcos – Anfiteatro ao Ar Livre, Grande Auditório e Auditório 2, num programa que não é comemorativo, mas que tem nas "várias intersecções do passado com o presente" um dos principais focos. Os primeiros cabeças de cartaz actuam logo no primeiro dia de festival. O quinteto de James Brandon Lewis aterra em Lisboa com o espectáculo For Mahalia, With Love, uma evocação de Mahalia Jackson não apenas como uma das grandes intérpretes musicais do século XX, mas como activista dos direitos civis. O cartaz desenrola-se nos dias seguintes. A dupla Sylvie Courvoisier & Cory Smythe actua no dia 3 de Agosto, um concerto a dois pianos que adapta A Sagração da Primavera de Stravinsky. No mesmo dia, claramente dedicado aos números pares, as quatro guitarras do quarteto de Bill Orcutt fazem-se ouvir no Anfiteatro ao Ar Livre. O mesmo palco é pisado pelo saxofonista Darius Jones no dia 8 de Agosto. No dia seguinte, o DJ, compositor e videasta Dieb 13 tem regresso marcado ao Jazz em Agosto, naquele que se espera ser um dos pontos altos do programa. Ao leme de uma armada de 14 músicos, vai apresentar várias das suas composições, num espectáculo organizado em quatro actos, que terá lugar no Grande Auditório. Caberá à Fire! Orchestra (na imagem), fechar o Jazz em Agosto de 2024. O con

Um feliz encontro de criativas. No Comadre, restaurante de Melissa Domingues e Meguy Pereira, a noite desta quinta-feira será diferente do habitual, em parte por causa de uma convidada especial. Marta Gonçalves, a designer por trás da marca Hibu, apresenta a sua mais recente colecção neste espaço, ao fim de duas estações longe da sua passerelle mais habitual, a da ModaLisboa. O evento, aberto ao público, está marcado para as 18.00 desta quinta-feira. O restaurante serve de cenário, mas tem ele próprio um trabalho criativo para trazer à luz do dia: a primeira linha de cerâmica com assinatura Comadre, criada especialmente para este evento. As formas orgânicas, inspiradas na natureza, estão no centro desta edição de peças. O acabamento iridescente torna os castiçais, bem como os itens de servir à mesa, diferentes de tudo o resto que encontramos no louceiro. Além de abrilhantarem o jantar, as peças também vão estar à venda.   © Maria RitaImagem da colecção Hibu, Verão 2024   O convívio será, por isso, em torno da mesa e da moda, com um happening marcado para as oito em ponto. Nele, Marta vai desvendar a colecção deste Verão, marcada pelos códigos urbanos e sem género que há muito pautam o estilo da marca e onde ganga volta a ser uma das protagonistas da estação. E o serão também será de compras. As peças Hibu vão estar à venda no local, mas a colecção só será lançada no site da marca um dia depois. O resto ficará a cargo dos já habituais ingredientes de festa – uma carta de coc

Netflix is a Joke Fest is bringing 527 comedy shows to L.A. These are 10 of the most unique ones.

Netflix is a Joke Fest is bringing 527 comedy shows to L.A. These are 10 of the most unique ones.

Yes, 527—and honestly, we wouldn’t be surprised if that number continues to grow. For the second time, Netflix is a Joke Fest is bringing an astonishing number of comedy shows to a couple dozen venues all across L.A. Though it bills itself as a festival, it’s better to think of the event as more of a comedy marathon: There’s not an all-encompassing festival pass, but you can buy individual tickets to shows that run just about all hours of the day between May 1 and 12. You’ll find a pretty remarkable lineup of comedians, too, including Taylor Tomlinson, Conan O’Brien, Brett Goldstein, Chelsea Handler, Jon Stewart, Hasan Minhaj, Hannah Gadsby, Cedric the Entertainer, Rachel Bloom, Kumail Nanjiani, Wanda Sykes and literally hundreds of others. Of course, in a city as rich with comedy clubs as L.A., you can see big names drop into intimate venues almost any night of the week. That’s not to downplay some of the fest’s stand-up stars like Bill Burr, John Mulaney or Trevor Noah who are playing the Hollywood Bowl, or Ali Wong who’s performing a staggering 12 shows at the Wiltern. But these are the sorts of folks who are no stranger to L.A. stand-up scene. On the other hand, there are a handful of shows on the Netflix is a Joke Fest lineup that feel like truly one-of-a-kind spectacles, either due to their extraordinary lineups or unprecedented premises. With that in mind, these are the 10 shows that we think stand out as some of the most unique ones to see at this year’s Netflix is a

Barnsdall Art Park’s wine tastings are back for the first time in five years

Barnsdall Art Park’s wine tastings are back for the first time in five years

As we started to approach summer, we were ready to count out Barnsdall Art Park’s Friday Night Wine Tastings. After all, it’s been nearly five years since we last were able to sample wines on the Hollyhock House’s west lawn, and we hadn’t heard a peep about them since. But one of L.A.’s best seasonal traditions is mounting a comeback: Every Friday evening this summer, from May 31 to August 30, you’ll once again be able to sip wine, grab a bite from a food truck, listen to DJ sets and watch the sunset from one of the city’s most scenic spots during the return of Barnsdall Art Park’s Friday Night Wine Tastings fund raisers. The 21-and-over events also include optional (and limited) interior tours of Frank Lloyd Wright’s Hollyhock House, the 1921 Mayan-inflected masterpiece that itself reopened in 2022 after being closed for a couple of years. Inside, you’ll be able to see Ravi GuneWardena’s ikebana installations that’ve been temporarily set up inside of the Japanese-influenced house. Photograph: Courtesy Barnsdall Art Park Foundation Photograph: Michael Juliano for Time Out As with the event’s original incarnation, Silverlake Wine will curate the sips each week, and you’re welcome to bring along a blanket and some snacks to pair with all of that wine (just no outside booze—or any pets). Even if you have no interest in wine, the three-and-a-half-hour event is still worth it to soak up the summertime sunset vibes (you might want to do with the $15 designated driver ticket if

‘American Idiot,’ ‘Parade’ and a new Larissa FastHorse play are coming to Downtown L.A.

‘American Idiot,’ ‘Parade’ and a new Larissa FastHorse play are coming to Downtown L.A.

For its 2024–25 season, Center Theatre Group will bring some big-name musicals to the Ahmanson Theatre, as well as—after a nearly year-and-a-half pause—step up its programming at the Mark Taper Forum. Parade, Life of Pi, Stephen Sondheim’s Old Friends (a revue that features Bernadette Peters and Lea Salonga) and a to-be-announced “highly acclaimed Broadway musical” headline the Ahmanson. Meanwhile, the Taper will host a Deaf West Theatre coproduction of Green Day’s American Idiot in both English and American Sign Language, the world premiere of Larissa FastHorse’s Fake It Until You Make It and a new Hamlet adaptation by director Robert O’Hara. Season tickets will go on sale May 8. Tickets to individual shows will go on sale a couple of months before their opening date. Though last season’s schedule put smaller-scale dramas at the Music Center’s Mark Taper Forum on hold due a budget shortfall, the plaza’s distinctive round building will return to a more regular pattern of productions this year. (Notably, Larissa FastHorse’s Fake It Until You Make It was less than two months away from its debut when the 2023–24 season was canceled.) However, due to “an impending construction project adjacent to [it],” Culver City’s Kirk Douglas Theatre will only host a pair of kid-friendly productions under the organization’s community-focused CTG:FWD banner, Cat Kid Comic Club: The Musical and El Otro Oz, a return engagement of a bilingual take on The Wizard of Oz. (CTG:FWD will also host the
