Spend Memorial Day Weekend in LA this Year!
May is an ideal time to visit Los Angeles! Tourist attractions are a lot less busy than they will be in June, allowing you to freely explore the city before it gets hectic. The weather begins to become drier in May with little to no rain and lots of sunshine! It’s a perfect place to enjoy Mother’s Day and Memorial Day weekend. Some events may be postponed or be different due to COVID-19, we will do our best to update this page with any new information that organizers release in the coming weeks.
