About

The La Jolla Art & Wine Festival returns to the streets of downtown La Jolla for its annual two-day outdoor event in October. More than 170 juried artists exhibit across painting, sculpture, jewelry, ceramics, glass, woodworking, photography, and mixed media — one of the more seriously curated outdoor art events in Southern California.

The wine and craft beer component makes this a genuine community gathering rather than a gallery visit: you browse with a glass in hand, discover work you were not expecting, and have real conversations with the artists. La Jolla Village in October has ideal weather — cool mornings, warm afternoons, the kind of light that makes outdoor art events look their best.

Girard Avenue and Prospect Street, downtown La Jolla, San Diego, CA 92037. Saturday October 10 and Sunday October 11. General admission includes a wine glass and tasting tickets. Additional tasting tickets available inside. Parking throughout La Jolla Village — the event closes several blocks to traffic, so arrive early or walk from peripheral lots. The event benefits the La Jolla Village Merchants Association and local arts programs.

Conejo Food and Wine Festival 2026
Tomorrow · Jun 28 ~$40 St. Paschal Baylon School Grounds,…

The hills above Thousand Oaks smell like summer on June 28 — wood smoke, caramelized onions, and something sweet from the dessert tent you'll tell yourself you'll skip. You won't. The Conejo Food and Wine Festival runs from 1:30 to 5:30 PM at St. Paschal Baylon School Grounds, 155 E Janss Rd, Thousand Oaks. Admission is roughly $40 and every dollar benefits local programs run by the community that puts this on every year. Local restaurants bring their most crowd-pleasing dishes. The wine pour is generous. Live music runs through the whole afternoon. People come with their neighbors and leave with strangers they'll see at next year's edition — because that's what happens when a community event actually works. The setup is unpretentious in the best way: a tree-shaded fundraiser that's been feeding the same neighborhood for over a decade. Dress for an outdoor afternoon — comfortable shoes, something breezy. Get there early enough to work through the food lineup before it runs out. The dessert table always runs out first. That's how you know it's good. Tickets available on Eventbrite. Parking on-site at the school grounds. This one doesn't advertise hard. It doesn't need to — it fills on word of mouth alone, the same way it has every year since anyone can remember.

K-Pop Festival at the San Diego County Fair 2026
Tomorrow · Jun 28 $22 2260 Jimmy Durante Blvd, Del Mar, …

There is a section of the San Diego K-pop fanbase that does not make the drive to KCON or Crypto.com Arena. Not because the trip is too far — because the home crowd is the crowd they want. The County Fair K-Pop day was built for them. A full day at Del Mar — performances, fan activations, photo zones, the choreography pop-ups that turn into impromptu group dances when the right song comes on — anchored to the fairgrounds rather than dropped into an arena built for somebody else's event. Fair admission covers the whole day. The fairgrounds sit on the coast, which matters because every previous K-pop event in this region was held in a parking lot in downtown LA. The people who show up to this are the ones who have been waiting for the K-pop community in San Diego to be visible to itself. They will recognize each other. That is the point of the day. San Diego County Fair, Del Mar Fairgrounds. June 28, 2026. Gates open 11 AM. K-Pop programming runs into the evening. General fair admission covers access to the festival.

Copa Del Rave: World Cup 2026 Watch Parties — Academy LA
In 7 days · Jul 4 – Jul 5 Academy LA, 6021 Hollywood Blvd, L…

Los Angeles has an unexpected World Cup tradition: part soccer watch party, part EDM rave, part cultural celebration. Copa Del Rave turns FIFA match days into full-scale events at Academy LA. The 2026 FIFA World Cup Quarterfinals (July 4-5) bring Copa Del Rave to its peak intensity. Match nights pair live DJ sets from world-class talent — including Claude VonStroke, Ardalan, DJ Minx, and curator crews representing Afrobeats, Reggaeton, Haitian, and Brazilian musical communities — with live soccer on the big screen, multi-room sound, and the kind of crowd energy that only happens when your country is playing. What makes Copa Del Rave different from a normal sports bar: the music is not background. The DJs set the emotional tempo of the match. When your team scores, the drop hits. The diaspora crews — Afrobeats To The World, Gasolina, Reggaeton Rave, Haitian Spotlight — turn each match into a cultural homecoming. Fans who have never been to a rave and ravers who have never watched soccer both belong here. QF Watch Parties run July 4-5 at Academy LA (Hollywood). Tickets available at Academy LA and copadelrave.com. 21+. Doors open at 9pm.

Doors open 5:00 AM (early buyer) or 7:00 AM (general). Car show runs 7 AM to 2 PM. Whether you're hunting a specific part for a restoration, chasing vintage automotive literature, or just want to walk the lot and talk to people who know what they're looking at — this is the room for it. General admission 0. Cash recommended. Food vendors on site. Parking at the gate. Address: 1801 W. McKinley Ave., Gate 17, Pomona, CA 91768.

Outdoor Movie: Bridesmaids

Street Food Cinema closes out its June run with Bridesmaids at The Autry Museum in Griffith Park on Saturday, June 27, 2026. Doors open at 6:00 PM; film begins at dusk around 8:30 PM. The 2011 Paul Feig comedy written by and starring Kristen Wiig remains one of the most rewatchable ensemble comedies of its generation. Outdoors, with food and wine flowing and a crowd that has memorized every scene, it becomes a genuine event rather than a rewatch. The Autry Museum of the American West is located at 4700 Western Heritage Way, Los Angeles, CA 90027, in Griffith Park. Bring a blanket or low-back chairs and stake out your spot after doors open. On-site food vendors, craft beverages, and a pre-show DJ are all part of the Street Food Cinema experience. Parking is available throughout Griffith Park. Tickets are sold through the Street Food Cinema website and sell out reliably, so advance purchase is strongly recommended.

Casa Mexico -- Family Festival at LA Plaza de Cultura y Artes 2026
Tomorrow · Jun 28 501 N Main St, Los Angeles, CA 900…

There is a reason LA Plaza de Cultura y Artes was built where it was. The official cultural home of Los Angeles's Mexican heritage sits on the land of the city's original settlement -- adjacent to Olvera Street, facing Union Station. During the 2026 World Cup, the Plaza becomes Casa Mexico: the official Mexico government hospitality house in Los Angeles. The June 28 Family Festival runs 10 a.m. to 5 p.m. with mariachi performances, cultural workshops, hands-on activities for children, artisan vendors, and traditional food. This is the kind of Sunday that becomes a reference point -- when a child remembers years later that their family brought them here, that they heard mariachi in an open courtyard, that they saw where the city began. Part of the full Casa Mexico series running June 11 through July 19. Free with RSVP. LA Plaza de Cultura y Artes, 501 N Main St, Los Angeles, CA 90012. Metro accessible from Union Station. All ages.

Dynamite airs Wednesday. Collision airs Saturday. July 1 at Viejas Arena, both happen on the same night in the same building — a combined taping that does not come to San Diego on a regular schedule. All Elite Wrestling returns to College Area for one of the biggest AEW events to come to Southern California this year: back-to-back flagship shows, packed card, title matches, and the surprise debuts AEW builds its reputation on. Viejas Arena holds 12,920. The crowd energy at a combined taping is different from a standard week — everyone in the building knows they are watching something unusual. AEW rosters include CM Punk, Samoa Joe, Swerve Strickland, MJF, Chris Jericho, The Young Bucks, Kenny Omega, Toni Storm, Mariah May, and dozens more. Nothing beats watching AEW in person — the crowd energy feeds directly into the broadcast. Viejas Arena: 5500 Canyon Crest Drive, San Diego. Freeway access off I-8 at College Avenue. Parking on-site. Doors open 90 minutes before bell time. Tickets via AEW's official site and Ticketmaster. All ages. Accessible seating available throughout.

Anime Expo 2026 — Los Angeles, CA

Every July 4th weekend, the Los Angeles Convention Center stops being a convention center and becomes the largest gathering of anime fans in North America. The four-day span draws 100,000 attendees and turns downtown LA into the axis of the anime world for the summer. The scale hits you immediately. The Exhibit Hall spans over 340,000 square feet of merchandise, artist booths, publisher displays, and licensed collectibles. Artist Alley is a separate destination — hundreds of independent creators selling original art, prints, and handmade goods, the kind of work you will not find on any streaming platform or official retail channel. The Industry Panels are where announcements happen: English dub cast reveals, new season confirmations, licensing news that fans will screenshot and share for weeks. Voice actor autograph sessions routinely have lines forming before sunrise. Is Anime Expo worth it? If you are even moderately embedded in anime culture — yes, emphatically. The density of what you can see and do in four days at the LACC is unmatched. There is no equivalent event in North America for scope, for industry access, for the sheer number of people who look exactly as excited about the same things you are. The cosplay alone — tens of thousands of costumes across every franchise — is worth the badge price for someone who has never seen it at this scale. Before you go: buy your badge early; prices increase and popular event tickets (Masquerade, concerts) require separate purchase and sell out fast. The convention floor opens at 9am but autograph lottery lines form before 7. Wear comfortable shoes — you will walk six miles without trying. The 4th of July weekend means Downtown LA is also hosting holiday events; plan transit accordingly. Metro is faster than driving. Bring cash for Artist Alley. Anime Expo earns its Nation's Best position because it is the single largest public expression of a cultural moment that has been building for thirty years and shows no sign of slowing. The mainstream discovered anime. AX is where the culture that built it celebrates on its own terms. Los Angeles Convention Center. July 2–5, 2026. The concert programming — separate ticketed events within AX — brings J-pop and ani-song artists to Los Angeles who rarely perform in North America outside of this weekend. If you follow any Japanese artist, check the concert schedule before finalizing your badge type. These shows sell out independently of the main badge and often represent the single best live music opportunity of any anime fan's year.
