Summer Solstice in the Southland

Although our longest day of the year in Los Angeles is a lot shorter than points north, we still know how to celebrate the season. From an astronomical presentation at the Griffith Observatory to a giant sidewalk sale with music, or a more traditional American Indian celebration, there are plenty of solstice festivities to choose from. Check out the Guide to Summer Solstice Events in Los Angeles for some great ways to kick off the official beginning of summer.
