3-Day Los Angeles Trip-Planning Tips

Kids have little patience for history and art unless they’re inclined or are on a field trip with their friends. With their family members, wires short circuit a little faster. As much as LA is about glitzy Hollywood destinations, splashy nightclubs, sprawling beaches and unique cultural hotspots, there are also many kid-friendly attractions for the little ones!

So, where do we begin? Let’s start with putting together a simple, doable, budget-friendly 3-day trip that will keep the kids engaged and adults sane. The secret is in slotting in an activity or two during the day…or night, depending on what you like… into the schedule. You could pencil it in between their naps on the rented charter bus or find a place where there’s something for them to do while YOU explore.

With the all-year amazing weather in Los Angeles, it means ANY TIME of the year is a good time to visit. Avoiding big summer crowds and paying exorbitant prices for admission is possible. So, without further ado, let’s get started with a mind-blowing Day One in LA.

LA Trip Plan for Day One: Whipping Everyone into High Gear

Universal Studios Hollywood

100 Universal City Plaza, Universal City, CA 91608
800-864-8377

The child in you will smile your way through the door and you can easily spend the entire day going from ride to ride to ride. The lines can be grueling, so, if you’re celebrating a birthday or giving the tickets away as gifts, it pays to get the VIP Pass or Express Pass.

This way, you can indulge in Harry Potter rides and simulations, Flight of the Hippogriff, Fast and Furious, King Kong 360 3D, Kung Fu Panda, The Walking Dead, Despicable Me, Jurassic Park, Transformers, The Simpson and Revenge of The Mummy. Otherwise, there are other fun attractions like The Universal’s Animal Actors, WaterWorld, Character Sightings, Silly Swirly Fun Rides, Special Effects Studio, Super Silly Fun Land and The World Famous Studio Tour.

The Exclusive or Limited VIP Experience is for those who would like to start their day off bright and early with a light breakfast. After that, you’d be escorted through popular themed rides, enjoy exclusive park benefits like special seats, savor delicious lunch courtesy of the Universal’s very own executive chefs, and enjoy VIP entry into the park. It’s basically celebrity treatment at the heart of Hollywood. It’s hard to beat.

Make everyone in your family, from kids to adults, happy with your short 3-day trip to Los Angeles with the following tips. 

Universal Studios tips:

• Come early!
• If you can afford it, purchase the VIP Pass
• Sunscreen. Need we say more?
• Hydrate and wear the right footwear
• Get ready to spend the entire day at the park
• Start the day off with the Studio Tour FIRST to get the basic idea of what you can expect
• Bring a change of clothes for the kids. WaterWorld.
• Parking is expensive. So, it encourages groups to pool money together and get their own charter buses for the trip. It will be worth the headache.

 

Make it the Best Three Days of your Life!

Make trips to Sunset Boulevard, Nickelodeon on Sunset, eat at renowned restaurants, visit world-class bars, while spending the whole day splashing around the beach front of Santa Monica State Beach.

It’s All Systems Go For LA’s Top Summer Events

Although Christmas, New Year and Halloween in Los Angeles is incredibly fun, nothing beats the summer months. With the sun out and schedules bursting at the seams, it is time to get planning! With the lineup of events packing up the June and July calendar, you’ll be opening up the floodgates to a load of fun outdoor and indoor activities all around Los Angeles. Some are free, others require a nominal fee, so, take your pick.

The month of July and early August are more packed than others, naturally, and you’ll get to enjoy infectious music festivals, exhilarating concerts, catch an outdoor movie screening (which is almost always free), live it up with an impromptu getaway at a neighboring CA beach, pack your friends into the rented charter bus for a tailgating party, or join everyone else for the July 4th fireworks and parade. With longer days, cooler nights, it’s the perfect time to let your hair down and enjoy concerts, cultural festivals, seasonal markets, quaint exhibits at museums, a weekend of camping, a cocktail event, or a pool party.

Don’t let anything stand between you and the best summer of your life. 

1. The Go-Gos

Jul 2 – 4, 2018, 7.30pm
Hollywood Bowl
2301 N Highland Ave, Los Angeles, CA 90068

It’s summer, the sun is out, the games are on and the fireworks are set to go off July 4th…what else is there to wish for?

Well, America’s very own 1980’s Spice Girls, maybe?

The Go-Gos, the all-female L.A. 1980’s wonder rock band will be performing at several locations this summer which includes The famous Hollywood Bowl. The female group rode high on the 1970s music wave despite going into semi-retirement in 1985. Fans know them as the rarity of an all-female group who plays their own instruments, compose and sing their own songs. This was a refreshing change from the constant of manufactured bands and cookie-cutter groups. Billboard charts welcomed their inclusion and so did their fans.

2018 summer, The Go-Gos will come out with their original members, performing at The Fox Theater Oakland, Humphrey’s by the Bay and the Hollywood Bowl. Tickets are on sale at The HollywoodBowl.com. After news of their ‘farewell tour’ in 2016, the hitmaker’s appearance of Jimmy Kimmel Live! showed that the group was anything BUT going into full retirement. They’re ready to electrify fans with famous hits like ‘We Got the Beat’ and ‘Our Lips are Sealed’, while the Los Angeles Philharmonic will be led by Music & Artistic Director Gustavo Dudamel.
