Which night to go out

Saturday is the busiest night in Los Angeles — 285 of the 1,155 dated events we list fall on a Saturday, about 25%, with Friday next at 209. Midweek is thinner, which usually means shorter queues and cheaper entry rather than nothing happening.

  • Monday — 66 events
  • Tuesday — 128 events
  • Wednesday — 144 events
  • Thursday — 150 events
  • Friday — 209 events
  • Saturday — 285 events

What a night out costs

Typical entry runs about $18.80, with most tickets between $13.38 and $24.95. We also list 10 free events. Those figures come from the sellers' own price ranges and move with demand — a lot of listings use dynamic pricing, so treat them as a guide and check the ticket page for the live number.

Planning the night

  • Start times below are the venue's own local time, not yours — worth checking if you're travelling in.
  • Age policy, door times and ID requirements are set by the venue and aren't in our feed. The seller's event page carries them.
  • Line-ups change. For multi-act bills, the running order is usually announced close to the date.
  • What's on tonight in Los Angeles and this weekend are the fastest ways in if you're deciding now.
