Labor Day Weekend on a Budget
/Cheers to the freakin long weekend!
I'll take any excuse for a three day weekend, okkurrr! I don't know about you, but I always feel pressured to come up with really epic things to do on a holiday weekend. Anyone else with me? To be honest though, my wallet doesn't always agree with my epic ideas haha. So, I'm going to be having a budget friendly epic weekend. I'm listing cheap ideas for your and your babe (or girls) to do this weekend.
1. Street Food Cinema There are two movies playing Saturday night (Sept. 1st) in two different venues in the LA area -- Wizard of Oz and The Wedding Singer. There are a ton of yummy food trucks there as well! Bring your coziest blanket and cuddle up with your favorite people and enjoy and old school styled movie night.
2. Have a beach day with your friends! Pack snacks and just hang out.
3. Bonfire at the beach during sunset.
4. Picnic at the park. Pack your speaker and have a park party!
5. The Broad Museum This is a free museum! I recommend reserving your "tickets" online ahead of time. If you don't, you'll be waiting in a "standby line," but you'll still get in.
6. The LA County Fair Tickets for adults over the weekend are $20 (for adults).
7. Santa Monica Pier -- there are a ton of carnival games, a ferris wheel and you have an incredible view ... need I say more?
9. Smorgasburg LA This event is on Sundays from 10am-4pm
10. Shakespeare in the Park I am a total theatre geek, so this is right up my alley! This is a free event in multiple parks in the LA area.
11. 10th Annual Marvel Studios Film Festival
12. Fiesta Hermosa admission is free, but you'll need cash if you want to shop the vendor booths.
13. E Hula Mau Hawaiian festival in Long Beach. Tickets are $25.
14. Beachfront Cinemas This is another outdoor movie experience, but you're on the beach in Huntington Beach instead of in a park. This venue offers jumbo-sized beanbags to sit on. Tickets are $15. Sept. 1 - Coco / Sept. 2 - Black Panther
15. Concert in the Park this is a free concert in Manhattan Beach on Sept. 2nd!
Whatever you do this weekend, be safe and HAVE FUN!
