What a blast! July explodes onto the scene with fireworks aplenty as Fourth of July events in Los Angeles come roaring back. And the 4th of July is only the beginning, as all month long our summer favorites are returning. Shakespeare by the Sea, Pageant of the Masters, the Hollywood Bowl ... all lined up and ready to go. We're biking, scooting, and strolling with CicLAvia, filling up on fair food at the Orange County Fair, and playing ball at Play Ball Park in honor of the MLB All-Star Game taking place at Dodger Stadium this year. If there was any doubt as to just how on this summer is going to be, San Diego Comic-Con is back with the answer: it's on, baby, it's very on.
