Welcome, listeners, to Things to Do in Los Angeles with your globe-trotting, game-loving guide, Oly Bennet! It’s Sunday, October 5th, 2025, and let me just say—LA is vibing hard this morning. The skies are serving that classic smog-meets-sunshine blend, trendy locals are brunching with sunglasses in the shade, and the city’s pulse is set to “electric anticipation.”

In local excitement, the city is buzzing with events for every flavor of fun—from concerts and book fairs to pet meetups that’ll have your Instagram howling.

Let’s kick off with a taste of today’s standout events. Sports fans, you’re in luck: it’s an NFL Sunday at SoFi Stadium, as the Los Angeles Chargers face off against the Washington Commanders—expect tailgates, adrenaline, and possibly someone in a giant foam finger suit. If you’re looking for cultural dopamine, The Walt Disney Concert Hall is rolling out The Rite of Spring with Dudamel, so snag those last-minute tickets if you love your music bold and your orchestras show-stopping. And for the bookish adventurers, Rare Books LA is transforming Union Station into a warm-lit wonderland of antiquarian treasures, celebrating none other than horror legend Guillermo Del Toro’s upcoming Frankenstein flick. Today’s also your last chance to catch Will Rawls: Unmade at the Hammer Museum—the perfect artsy detour between eats.

Families, the adventure (and sugar rush) await! The Discovery Cube LA makes science and Halloween collide with Enchanted Halloweekends. If your little monsters need to get some wiggles out, check out mini photo sessions in the OC, or let them dash through pumpkin patches and corn mazes at Tanaka Farms in Irvine.

The city is buzzing with the energy of a Saturday packed with events, a touch of Halloween mischief lurking in the air, and music floating through every neighborhood.

Today is Friday, October 3, 2025, and Ollie Bennet here from your favorite (if I do say so myself) globe-trotting, sports-obsessed podcast—ready to dive into the wild, weird, and wonderful things to do in the City of Angels. The sun’s out, the skies are clear, and the city hums with that signature LA energy—part laid-back beachy, part Hollywood glam, and a dash of “Did that person really just rollerblade past a food truck?” You’re in for a day packed with possibility, whether you want to soak up culture, dance under neon, or seek out the city’s secret sauce.

First, the vibe—LA’s in full-on fall mode, which means you get sunshine without the August sweat, palm trees swaying, and a contagious buzz thanks to everything from opening nights to festival pop-ups. According to Discover Los Angeles, we’ve got a jam-packed day across music, theater, sports, and family fun. Here’s a quick triple play:

For all you live music junkies, Avalon Hollywood is throwing down their signature Emo Nite tonight—a chance to relive your Myspace-era feels, sing your emo heart out, and, well, maybe even wear black eyeliner unironically. Doors open at 9:00 PM, 21 and up only, because nothing says “adult” like a little nostalgic self-expression.

If you’re more into cult classics and spooky vibes, Hollywood Forever Cemetery is hosting a screening of “ParaNorman”—the smart, heartwarming, stop-motion gem from the folks who brought us “Coraline.” Bring a blanket, pack some snacks, and settle in under the stars for a truly unique LA experience.

Sports fans, listen up: The Los Angeles Football Club is facing off against Atlanta United at BMO Stadium at 6:00 PM, and if you’re craving a little more footie, there are plenty of neighborhood pickup games across the city too. Pro tip: for a truly local twist, try finding a pickup match at Pan Pacific Park—soccer here is practically a religion.

And for families, if you missed yesterday’s Kid Quest Adventure in Beverly Hills, don’t worry. There are always new pop-up activities for little explorers this weekend—think outdoor scavenger hunts, science in the park, and arts-and-crafts sessions at local rec centers.

Speaking of eats, Genghis Cohen is reopening in Fairfax with updated classics and a new weekend brunch menu—go for the pastrami egg rolls, you won’t be sorry.
