Free Music Concerts: Levitt Pavilion in Los Angeles (from 3 July)

I went to the Kick-off party, more about that later. Going is a snap–take the Gold Line to the Red Line and get off at MacArthur Park/West Lake.

The Levitt Pavilion is on the other side of the park near the corner of West Sixth and Park View. The Metro station lets you out near a 99 Cent store. I’d be leery about returning home alone. Best to go with a crowd of friends.

Wednesdays: Musica Latina 7:30 p.m.
Thursdays: World Music 7:30 p.m.
Fridays: Night Rhythms 7:30 p.m.
Saturdays: American Roots 7:30 p.m.
Sundays: Children’s Nights 6:30 p.m.

Pay to Party: MacArthur Park Free Concert Kick-off

The Kick-off Party isn’t free ($25), but the rest of the summer full of concerts are. I’ve never gone from Pasadena to MacArthur Park so this will be a new experience.

Sounds like fun: food by Chichen Itza Restaurant, an open bar (as if that meant anything to a non-drinker like myself), silent auction and desserts by La Fonda. The proceeds go to The Friends of the Levitt Pavilion-MacArthur Park and will be held tonight at the Park Plaza Hotel, 607 S. Park View Street (at West 6th Street) in Los Angeles.

I understand we also get a goodie bag, too

Got to www.levittla.org or buy a ticket at the door.
