With the state reopening, Fathers Day 2021 is looking a whole lot different from last year. Restaurants are expected to operate at full capacity, music festivals are back on the calendar and fully vaccinated Californians have been given the green light to ditch their face masks at many (but not all) places. For those eager to break out of their pandemic shells and maybe brave the return of packed crowds (and yes, traffic), Los Angeles has Fathers Day weekend events that go beyond ballgames and beer.
Go to the drive-in movies at the Santa Monica Airport: They were a welcome revival during the era of social distancing, and drive-in movies are still an option for those who need a minute before returning to indoor theaters or those who simply enjoy the experience of watching films outside. The drive-in at airport has a few shows, including Taken, a movie technically about a father-daughter relationship. More info on this location; there are also rooftop movies in El Segundo.)
Paint in Leimert Park: Channel your inner artist this weekend with Sip N Paint in Leimert Park, hosted by Da Art Haus. Create a piece of art to take home in a laid-back atmosphere.
