5 great ways to close out February.
The end of February can feel a little sleepy at times. Most of the winter holiday weekends are behind us, the weather is continually temperamental, and Daylight Savings is still several weeks away. And yet, that doesn’t mean the city is devoid of fun events this week. There are exciting pop-ups, Latin jazz dance parties, early Mardi Gras celebrations, and more.
This Saturday, February 26th Heavy Handed is popping up at Deux Ex Machina in Venice from 12-4pm with a special menu paying tribute to another LA burger institution, Tommy’s. The double smashburger will be topped with a housemade short rib chili, pickles, onion, and yellow mustard, and short rib chili cheese fries will also be available. Both items are only available for pre-order.
As Black History Month comes to a close, go support and celebrate black farmers, chefs, and entrepreneurs at the Prosperity Market pop-up this Saturday, February 26th from 11am-3:30pm. Located on the grounds of the California African American Museum, the market will feature a variety of different food stalls, artisan shops, DJs, cooking demonstrations, raffles, and a kids area. Admission to this event is free.
Cicada Club is one of LA’s best jazz venues, and this Saturday, February 26th, the Downtown club is hosting their “Mambo Craze Cabaret.” The night will include numerous Latin jazz musicians, burlesque performers, Puerto Rican choreographers, and much more. Tickets are $45 for general admission and up to $910 for big-group bottle service.
The weekly Inglewood market is throwing a big Mardi Gras party this Sunday, February 27th from 12-6pm. The event will feature over 60 local food and craft vendors, Happy Hour drink specials, giveaways, DJs, beaded necklaces, a kids area, and much more. Entrance to the event is $1, but free if you register here.
Nothing really says Sunday funday quite like a rowdy afternoon at drag bunch. If that’s the mood you’re in this weekend, you have plenty of options. There’s Redline and Precinct Downtown, plus the West Hollywood staples like The Abbey, Rocco’s, and Beaches.
