Springtime officially arrives March 20, and the sunshine and warmer weather have returned. In celebration, we’ve gathered a list of fun free things-to-do to explore and enjoy LA this week!

Swee (Ool) Woo loves to longboard. She has attended all but two CicLAvia events since 2010, so there's a good chance you've spotted her along the route. 

From kites to kilts to sunset hikes, here are some fun ways to explore LA without spending a dime. 

Our 2019 season opener proved that no matter the weather, we love to come together in the open streets.

Our next event is on April 28, but we hope you continue to have fun and explore the region with these no-cost events where you can celebrate International Women's Day, sleep in late after Daylight Saving Time starts on Sunday, and much more this week.

Cue the countdown! Only a few days separate us from the start of the 2019 CicLAvia season. In the meantime, we've gathered some free opportunities to learn, exercise, volunteer, and have fun this week.

To kick off our 2019 season, we're returning to one of Los Angeles’ favorite car-free event locations, CicLAvia–Culver City Meets Mar Vista + Palm. By way of vibrant corridors normally packed with cars, this popular route connects downtown Culver City to Mar Vista. For this, our 29th CicLAvia, we’ve added stretches of the route into Palms and Culver City’s Arts District.

In the spirit of Valentine's Day, all of us at CicLAvia have been reflecting on what we love about the LA region. We all recently penned love notes to this city that holds a special place in each of our hearts. And we wanted to share them with you, the community of people who care as much about LA as we do.

We’re very excited to honor journalist Alissa Walker and AARP in Los Angeles with the Spirit of CicLAvia Award at our 3rd annual pLAy day in LA fundraiser on Sunday, February 10.
