Welcome to 'Things to do in Los Angeles' on this sunny Sunday, March 2, 2025 As we step into the early days of spring, Los Angeles is buzzing with energy, perfect weather, and a plethora of exciting events.
Today, the city is basking in clear skies and mild temperatures, setting the stage for a fantastic day out. Here are a few key events that you won’t want to miss:
First up, if you're a fan of trading cards, anime, and pop culture, the LA Collect-A-Con 2025 is in full swing at the Los Angeles Convention Center. This massive convention is open to the public until 5 PM today, offering a vast array of collectibles, interactive experiences, and meet-and-greets with industry icons[1].
For those who love DIY publishing and art, the L.A. Zine Fest at The Broad is a must-visit. This two-day festival, concluding today, features dozens of exhibitors, hands-on workshops, and panel discussions, all set against the backdrop of The Broad’s collection exhibition, "Joseph Beuys: In Defense of Nature"[4][5].
If you're looking for something more laid-back, head over to the Santa Monica Pier for the Wellness & Waves Festival. This event combines wellness activities, live music, and a beautiful ocean view, making it a perfect spot to unwind and enjoy the day[5].
In other local news, Montclair-based social well-being club Loopwell has launched the ‘Givewell LA’ initiative to support Los Angeles communities recovering from recent wildfires. This virtual series of well-being classes aims to promote physical, emotional, and mental healing[2].
For food enthusiasts, March is a great time to explore Los Angeles, especially with the 5th Annual Women’s History Month Festival by Regarding Her. This month-long celebration highlights women-owned and led food and beverage businesses across the city, featuring curated dining experiences, exclusive pop-ups, and chef collaborations[4].
If you're new to LA or just looking to explore like a local, here’s a tip: take advantage of the city’s extensive public transit system. For instance, to get to The Broad for the L.A. Zine Fest, you can take the B or D Lines to Grand Park / Civic Center station or the A or E Lines to Grand Av Arts/Bunker Hill station[5].
For a unique seasonal experience, consider visiting the Griffith Observatory, which offers stunning views of the city and the Hollywood Sign. You can hike, bike, or even take a horseback ride to enjoy the best sights Los Angeles has to offer[3].
As the day winds down, if you're looking for some nightlife, Chinatown’s First Fridays event, though not happening today, is something to look forward to next week. It features an evening of exploring unique small businesses, restaurants, bars, and contemporary art and culture spaces, all free to attend[4].
Tomorrow, be sure to check out the NHM's First Fridays at the Natural History Museum, which will focus on sound and music, featuring DJ sets and pop-up sound experiences throughout the museum. It’s an event you won’t want to miss[4].
Until next time, stay tuned for more exciting events and activities in the City of Angels. Whether you're a local or just visiting, Los Angeles has something for everyone, and we can't wait to share more of it with you
