Looking for something to do in LA — compare local attractions, activities, and entertainment near you, from the Hollywood Sign to spots tucked away in Santa Monica.
Los Angeles offers everything from major landmarks like the Hollywood Sign to smaller neighborhood attractions in areas like Santa Monica and Silver Lake that don't always show up on a typical visitor's list. Because Los Angeles is a sprawling city where the best option is often a short drive rather than a walk, the best plan for the day really depends on which part of LA you're starting from — setting your exact location surfaces nearby options first rather than burying them under the city's best-known landmarks. Checking hours and season matters here too, since outdoor activities and seasonal events around Los Angeles can be weather- or date-dependent.
Set your location above and each result shows current distance and status, so you can quickly see what's actually open and nearby right now.
Roughly, attractions and outdoor activities tend to be things you visit or do — like a landmark or a hike — while entertainment venues host scheduled shows or events.
Santa Monica and Silver Lake both offer a mix of local attractions and activities beyond the well-known spots near the Hollywood Sign — worth exploring if you've already covered the main landmarks.
Most major areas of Los Angeles, including neighborhoods near the Hollywood Sign, have indoor museums, entertainment venues, and activities — filter for indoor options if the weather isn't cooperating.
