The MLB regular season is nearing an end, and with the San Francisco Giants in town, this could be your last chance to take in a Los Angeles Dodgers game before the playoffs begin.
If you’re looking for things to do outside of baseball, though, Dodgers Nation still has you covered.
Check out our roundup of some highlights of the events happening in Southern California this weekend.
Mezcal Por Siempre 2026

Fans of mezcal are in for a treat.
More than 50 Mexican mezcals can be sampled in a festival that celebrates the spirit and the history behind it.
“More than a tasting event, Mezcal Por Siempre is a gathering that honors the maestras and maestros mezcaleros, campesino traditions, and the communities that continue to protect and pass this knowledge from one generation to the next,” organizers said.
Beyond the drinks, guests will be able to enjoy “food from some of Los Angeles’ most beloved vendors” and “live music, art, dance, and cultural programming in one of the city’s most important community spaces,” organizers said.
Tickets are required and begin at about $82 with fees included. Click here to buy.

The self-described “best vintage on the planet” is back in LA this weekend.
“Bringing together over 70 premier vintage retailers and private dealers from both coasts and beyond, A Current Affair presents the best vintage clothing, accessories, and jewelry under one roof at the Cooper Design Space in Downtown LA,” organizers said.

Some of the items available date back to the 19th century.
“Christened a ‘cult shopping event’ by Vogue, A Current Affair is a major source for stylists, designers, and anyone in search of one of a kind vintage ranging from perfectly worn-in jeans to rare and collectible designer vintage,” organizers said. “Shop an array of vintage clothing, accessories, and jewelry from the Victorian Era through today.”
Los Angeles Haunted Hayride
When: Fridays, Saturdays and Sundays through the end of September, with availability increasing as Halloween nears
Where: Griffith Park, 4730 Crystal Springs Drive, Los Angeles, CA 90027
“The most fun you’ve ever had getting scared” is back in Griffith Park.
This year’s edition includes multiple attractions, such as the town of Midnight Falls, where “the veil between the living and the dead is at its thinnest,” and Fallen Angel, “a legendary rock band whose final Halloween rehearsal ended in flames, and whose spirits still haunt the abandoned theater.”
It’s not all tricks, though, treats like s’mores are also available.
Tickets begin at $35 and can be purchased here.
