LA Date Ideas Overview
Planning a date night in Los Angeles is a breeze, with limitless options befitting every personality, mood, and budget.
Music fanatics who want to take their sweetheart to a live show have an overabundance of venues to choose from: Troubadour in West Hollywood, The Wiltern in Koreatown, Hollywood Bowl in Hollywood, El Rey Theatre in Mid-Wilshire, The Greek Theatre in Griffith Park, Largo at the Coronet in Beverly Grove…the list goes on. Ticket prices vary depending on the performer, with some seats available for pocket change and others requiring an American Express Black Card.
Those looking to break the ice with a new crush can crack laughs at one of L.A.’s comedy clubs. There’s a variety of shows – stand-up, sketch, improv – at places like Upright Citizens Brigade (UCB), Laugh Factory, Improv, and Groundlings.
For seasonal date options, summertime means Hollywood Forever Cemetery Screenings are back, along with the opportunity for a twilight picnic, cool movie, and cuddle-worthy surroundings. Come Christmastime, ICE at Santa Monica is where couples can hold hands while skating in 70-degree weather.
Los Angeles is never short on date ideas. Get to know that special someone with an invitation for a night out in the City of Angels.
