Things to do in LA area around christmas and new years eve?

[k0befomvp]

So I'm going to Los Angeles with my girl during the holidays. We are coming from the Netherlands and it will be our first time over there. I already gotthe Lakers tickets ofcourse, but since it's a big city I would like to plan what we would like to do during our stay over there. So basicly my question iswhat are the most fun things to do during the holidays? Which malls / stores should I visit? What are the best clubs (I'm 22 but my girl is 20)? Are thereany special christmas / new years even events?

Thanks in advance!

Beverly Center
Downtown Pasadena (Shops, clubs, and restaurants)
Hollywood Strip (lots to do there)
CityWalk at Universal Studios

Go to the La Brea/Fairfax area... hit up all the shops (Undftd, Stussy, Union, Flightclub, The Hundreds, Supreme, blah blah)

When you're around that area you can go check out The Grove which is nice around Christmas.

 

[frenchblue23]

Yeah, forgot to mention "The Grove"

It depends...are you looking to do the tourist thing where you take pictures of Hollywood stars and such or do you want to do as the locals do? Either way theGrove is pretty overrated save for the Farmer's Market imo

i think that technically its a pier. you know like where that seafood restaurant is and what not. it is made out ofwood

 

[cincoseisdos]

so we're talking about shoreline village? I'm just confused. I mean ask any local, the closest pier is Redondo unless they know about the one on 2ndstreet in Belmont

 

[k0befomvp]

Alright thanks for the responses!

What about the clubs? Im 22 but my girl is 20, is there a big chance she will get denied access? If thats the case, what are some good 18+ clubs?

 

[presequel]
