This free event welcomes bikes, tricycles, skateboards, strollers and basically anything else without an engine to ride a rotating cast of car-free routes. 

This Sunday’s “Heart of L.A.” event opens 7.5 miles of streets spanning Downtown (including the 6th Street Viaduct), Echo Park and Little Tokyo, among other neighborhoods. Expect music, street performances and food trucks, as well as general whimsy and shenanigans along the way.

The nations largest hawker stall = Smorgasburg LA!

I like to come here bc it’s always summer vibes and you get all of LA’s most viral food trucks in one place. Gives a major platform to small businesses and gives me a unique experience every time.

I come for food, beverages, local artistry and sun. Bring water and hats for sun protection bc it’s a large parking lot and all the asphalt makes it hot there ☀️ 🧢 🧴 💦

Influenced to try Community Goods while in LA and so glad I did. 
Hopefully we’ll see them back in Miami for another pop-up soon 👀

Hands down one of the best iced matcha lattes - added their vanilla syrup + oat milk. The sliders were so pillowy and much lighter than I expected (thankfully) and the sauces!!! Herb Aioli and a sweet and sour hot sauce.

The pistachio toast though, was just the cherry on top! Think Nutella but pistachio no chocolate, fresh nuts and honey on a rustic bread. Chefs kiss ✨

I got there super early on a weekday just after opening to avoid any famed hour long lines and had a lovely #slowmorning on their patio 🍵

High Rooftop Lounge at Hotel Erwin 🌟
Beachside rooftop bar with chill vibes and epic sunsets.

From the roof terrace at the lovely Hotel Erwin rooftop bar, you get some amazing views over the Pacific Ocean and Venice Beach.
Being the only rooftop in Venice, High Rooftop Lounge feels a lot like a continuing of the beach below, with lounge sofas and large umbrellas. The only difference might be that up here you also have infrared (and blankets) keeping the heat up on chilly nights.

The rooftop bar offers a good selection of well made specialty cocktails and different Californian beers, along with some really tasty bar bites and a weekend brunch. The menu even includes sun screen, so visits during sunny days is no problem at all.

Expect a great lounge vibe on the terrace, perfect for relaxing drinks in the sun. And at night, there are often live DJs picking up the pace a notch.

Exploring Burbank's Family-Friendly Spots

When it comes to family-friendly activities, Burbank near LA holds a treasure trove of hidden gems. Tucked away from the hustle and bustle of the typical tourist trails, these local secrets ensure that you and your family have a memorable experience. Read on if you're looking to uncover some authentic and trending family activities that the locals swear by.

Magnolia Park - The Heart of Community Engagement

Magnolia Park is a lively area often celebrated for its vintage boutiques, custom eateries, and delightful bakeries, but it also provides an excellent setting for families. On weekends, you can stumble upon various community events such as street fairs, where musicians, artisans, and food vendors set up shop. Drop by for their monthly Ladies & Gents Night Out, where the streets come alive with laughter and vibrant activities suitable for children and adults alike.

Kidspace Children's Museum

Even though it’s a bit of a hidden jewel slightly off the main drag, the Kidspace Children’s Museum offers an unparalleled experience for families. This interactive museum encourages kids to get hands-on with exhibits that range from archaeology digs to creative art projects, ensuring endless exploration possibilities. Locals suggest visiting during weekdays to avoid crowds and maximize your child’s engagement in the activities.

Wildwood Canyon Park - A Haven for Nature Lovers

For families who enjoy the great outdoors, Wildwood Canyon Park is the ideal venue. This scenic and relatively under-explored park offers various trails suitable for children, making it a favorite weekend getaway for local families. The area's tranquillity allows you to indulge in relaxation while the kids explore and encounter native wildlife like rabbits and hawks. Pack a picnic and make a day out of your visit – you won’t regret this local insight into Burbank's natural beauty.

Warner Bros. Studio Tour Hollywood

Forget those commercialized tourist traps; a visit to the Warner Bros. Studio Tour Hollywood provides a slice of local magic with a dose of Hollywood glamour. Merging education with entertainment, this tour provides an exciting adventure that will captivate both children and adults. Witness the behind-the-scenes action of some of your favorite films and TV shows, engage with authentic stage sets, and even partake in interactive exhibits. When booking your tour, opt for slots during non-peak hours to avoid the larger rush and make the experience more personalized for your family.

Johnny Carson Park - Relaxation and Recreation

Named after the legendary talk show host, Johnny Carson Park offers an oasis for local families. Featuring extensive playgrounds, shaded picnic areas, and winding walking paths, this park is a fantastic spot to spend a laid-back afternoon. You’ll often find locals engaging in casual sports games or enjoying a serene walk by the river. It’s particularly peaceful during morning hours, so swing by early to enjoy some quiet family time before the park fills up.

Burbank Town Center - Not Your Ordinary Mall

Shopping malls might not always seem family-friendly, but Burbank Town Center bucks the trend. With a variety of activities catering to children, including a kid's club that features storytelling and craft sessions, it transforms shopping into an enjoyable outing. There are also family-focused dining options that provide an array of cuisines to satisfy even the pickiest eaters. Local tip: don’t miss the LEGO Store, where interactive displays allow kids to create their own brick masterpieces.

Pony Rides at Griffith Park

A short drive from Burbank gets you to Griffith Park, where the Pony Rides are a perennial favorite among local families. Often overlooked in favor of the larger attractions, these gentle rides offer young children the thrill of riding a pony in a safe, supervised environment. It’s recommended to arrive early in the day as Griffin Park is known for its sweeping views of the city which can become a bit crowded as the day progresses.

Verdugo Aquatic Facility

When the temperature rises, locals in the know head to the Verdugo Aquatic Facility for a refreshing dip. This family-friendly facility offers a zero-depth entry pool, a dedicated splash pad for younger children, and even swimming lessons for various age groups. Given its popularity among local families, it’s wise to check the schedule for off-peak hours to make your visit more comfortable.

Autry Museum of the American West

For an educational twist on family fun, the Autry Museum of the American West provides fascinating insights into the westward expansion. Featuring interactive exhibits that engage children and teach them about this significant period in American history, the museum is a hidden gem often frequented by local educational groups. With ample parking and accessible facilities, it’s an easy and intriguing spot to add to your family outing itinerary.

Next time you find yourself in Burbank, venture beyond the usual spots and dive into these local family-friendly activities. You’ll discover why this area is a beloved enclave for both relaxation and exploration, brimming with authentic experiences that the whole family will treasure.
