Summer is not over yet, and there are so many things to do in a Los Angeles August! It's a great time to enjoy outdoor movies & concerts, summer festivals, and the best beach days.
A Los Angeles August is that crazy time of year when the height of heat and summer fun collides with back-to-school, and parents need to turn the dial up on the end-of-summer fun. Luckily, the events and outings in Los Angeles this month do not disappoint, and there are loads of amazing activities to do before the school bell rings, and many of them are free.
This Los Angeles August sees the return of several favorites, including the Getty Center's Garden Concerts for Kids, the Actors' Gang's wildly creative Shakespeare in the Park for Kids, and the Japanese American National Museum's annual summer celebration, the Natsumatsuri Family Festival.
