Tongva Twilight: Sounds & Cinema

TONGVA TWILIGHT: Sounds & Cinema is a FREE outdoor summer series celebrating live music, outdoor cinema, and community at Tongva Park. The series takes place every Saturday from August 8 through September 12, beginning at 7 p.m., and features an eclectic lineup of entertainment ranging from big band ska, salsa, and New Orleans funk to music-themed films—or a combination of both—all beneath the stars, just steps from the Pacific Ocean.

Pack a picnic and enjoy a free, fun, family-friendly evening in one of Santa Monica’s most beautiful parks. Complimentary popcorn will be available on movie nights while supplies last.
