Outdoor venues continue to multiply in 2021.
Last year, arts groups scrambled to fashion stages within mere weeks as the coronavirus pandemic brought indoor entertainment to a halt. Their efforts were worth it audiences snapped up tickets to events that allowed social distance, fresh air and fun.
Now, armed with a year of planning, the venues that were new last year are returning with upgrades. And more are entering the outdoor realm for the first time, too. Here are the spots where you ll find live music, plays, poetry, movies, dance and art tours all summer long.
Live music and opera

Don t let the door hit you on the way out, 2020. Ring in 2021 with online parties and countdowns hosted by Snoop Dogg and queens from RuPaul s Drag Race. Attend Grand Park s virtual New Year s Eve fest. Laugh away this year at your pick of comedy shows. Watch online sets from Pink Martini, birthday girl Patti Smith and the Dandy Warhols. Watch the ball drop in NYC all by its lonesome self.
From all of us at LAist, have a safe, socially distant New Year s Eve, and cheers to a better 2021!
