We’re back with our South Bay Summer series, highlighting local events in and around the South Bay – this is the place to enjoy summer (hello Hamptons turf wars!) and our quaint beach towns have just the thing to get you in the full swing of summer:
Concerts in the Park at Polliwog, Manhattan Beach
Manhattan Beach’s beloved Concerts in the Park is back with a full schedule this year and includes a variety of musical talent to satisfy both the advanced and younger crowd. Bring your friends and a picnic and get there early but be sure to leave your pets at home! Sundays at 5:00pm through September 4, Polliwog Park, 1601 Manhattan Beach Blvd, Manhattan Beach
The Lakes at El Segundo
Dust off your clubs and book a tee time at the Lakes, where you can play 9 holes at their pretty little course or simply get your swing back at the driving range. Renovated in 2022, the Lakes offers lessons, a putting green, and a café for cooling off after your round. www.golfthelakes.com
Shakespeare by the Sea
For 25 years, Shakespeare by the Sea has been providing free entertainment whilst celebrating England’s most famous bard. Gather your friends and families, beach chairs and blankets for quality entertainment under the summer stars. See Romeo and Juliet and Much Ado About Nothing at Valley Park in Hermosa Beach or at Polliwog Park in Manhattan Beach, July 13, 14, 21, and 22 at 7pm. Go to www.shakespearebythesea.org for more details.
Machine Gun Kelly – July 13-16 at the Kia Forum
Kenny Chesney – July 23 at SoFi Stadium
Red Hot Chili Peppers – July 31 at SoFi Stadium
We’d be remiss if we didn’t mention these concerts coming up this summer, as world-class music is always a part of the Los Angeles scene. With these two venues just twenty minutes from the beach, an awesome night of live music is a welcome choice for a staycation night.
