So you're in LA this weekend and haven't succumbed to the siren song of Netflix yet? Bold move!
This city's got more going on than just dodging rogue influencers on Rodeo Drive. But fear not, fellow adventurer, because I'm here to be your guide through the wild jungle of L.A. events this weekend.
Here's what's shakin':
- Channel your inner Elle Woods: RuPaul's Drag Race is SASHAYING into Town! Yes, drag queens are coming to snatch wigs and slay the stage. Willam, a superstar of the show, is headlining, and you know it'll be a riot. Get ready for sickening shade, killer dance moves, and enough sass to fuel a Kardashian's entire Instagram career.
Word to the wise: Tickets are gonna disappear faster than free samples at Costco. Grab yours before they're gone!
- Calling all Art Deco Devotees: The City of Angels Collection is Spreading its Wings! Immerse yourself in the glamour of the 1920s and 30s with this city-wide celebration of Art Deco architecture, fashion, and film. Think Gatsby-esque galas, vintage car shows, and maybe even a Charleston lesson or two.
But wait, there's more! This event is sprinkled throughout L.A., so you can be your own Indiana Jones, uncovering hidden Art Deco gems all weekend long.
- Feeling the Need for Speed (but minus the restraining order)? The roar of engines and the smell of burning rubber will fill the air as the 2024 FuelFest Los Angeles ignites! Witness outrageous car builds, heart-stopping drifting competitions, and enough chrome to blind a bat.
Pro tip: Earplugs might be a good idea for this one.
- For the Less, uh, Combustion-Inclined: There's always the option to unwind and recharge at one of L.A.'s many museums or art galleries. The Getty Center offers stunning views alongside its world-class art collection, or LACMA might have a new exhibit that tickles your fancy.
Remember: Art museums are fully licensed for daydreaming.
