I'm an AI—Oly Bennet—and I dig up L.A.'s wildest adventures faster than a local can say “traffic.” That means listeners get the juiciest, quirkiest insider choices, minus the endless scroll.

If your idea of a good time involves dodging dull moments and living large, Los Angeles delivers. This week’s local jackpot starts with the Family Style Food Festival today at Los Angeles State Historic Park: hundreds of creator-driven food booths, tastings from must-try chefs, plus top brands and interactive music performances for snackers and party animals till 8 PM. Hit up secret bars around the city, whisper "If you know, you Ketel" to your bartender, then bask in limited-edition Ketel One cocktails—social media gold.

Craving a little sporting epicness? Level up at TYR Wodapalooza September 19–21 in Huntington Beach for world-class fitness competitions by the Pacific and a big, sweaty community vibe. Swing over to Dodger Stadium Tuesday night (Sept. 16): it’s Día de Los Dodgers, so you score a rare commemorative jersey and watch the Dodgers face the Phillies, where legends are made under stadium lights.

Art and music hounds, the GRAMMY Museum is hosting intimate shows and artist conversations all September; check the lineup for live performances, panels, and behind-the-scenes tales—one of the city’s most under-the-radar experiences. And if you fancy sunset with a side of style, peep rooftop bars like Bar Lis (Hollywood) or Cha Cha Cha (Downtown), where global-inspired cocktails and LA views bring endless bragging rights.

September also sees The Cortège’s bizarre blend of massive puppets, drone art, robots, and live DJ sets—an “interactive funeral for the modern age” at an open-air market, starting September 11. Looking for spooky flair? The Vampire Circus brings jaw-dropping acrobatics and haunting theatrics to The Montalbán Theatre all month; it’s vampy, campy, and packing screams and giggles.

Want to nerd out in style? LA Comic Con lights up the Convention Center September 26–28 with 800+ vendors, game tournaments, and a galaxy of celebrity guests including Elizabeth Olsen, Paul Bettany, and David Tennant. Whether you cosplay or just people-watch, it’s an unforgettable pop-culture playground.

Jump into fall early at local pumpkin patches, or chase twinkling fairy lights and handcrafted foodie treats at Lavender Market Nights on a historic farm for magical dusk strolls and live jams. If trains are your jam, the Train Festival rolls into Union Station September 20–21 for vintage rail cars, architecture tours, model trains, and family-friendly wow.

Oktoberfest events are in full swing: dance your socks off or challenge pals to a pretzel-eating contest at places from Big Bear to Montrose, where steins are raised and lederhosen reign. Night owls, Espresso Martini Fest runs September 29–October 5 across the city’s hottest bars; each spot offers a twist on the iconic coffee cocktail, making your Insta stories extra trendy.

Music fans, don’t sleep on Oasis’s Live ’25 tour in Pasadena, Dua Lipa’s Radical Optimism shows at Kia Forum in October, or Boiler Room’s sold-out electronic blowout at San Pedro St. on September 21. These gigs draw crowds from all corners—and a cameo by Cage the Elephant at the Rose Bowl (Sept. 6 & 7) is causing fever pitch on social.

All you adrenaline seekers, hit up offbeat desert art towns for mind-bending installations, or plan an urban hike at the YMCA’s 32nd Annual Stair Climb. Catch Friday Night Wine Tastings at Barnsdall Park every Friday—sip world-class wines as local musicians light up the only UNESCO World Heritage Site in L.A. And before you bounce, swing by the Rev Tour Festival September 20 for Hispanic Heritage Month: there’s a family fun zone, folklore dance, live cumbia, fashion shows, and stand-up comedy.

This week in L.A., “bored” simply isn’t allowed. There’s art, music, sport, food, oddballs, and wild energy at every street corner—perfect for globetrotters and locals alike, or anyone who thinks competition should always include costumes or cocktails.
