Southern California isn’t exactly known for its frosted holiday vibes, but this year, we’re getting a dose of seriously sparkly cheer. Enchant Christmas—the over-the-top, light-strewn winter spectacle that’s been dazzling families from Dallas to D.C.—is finally making its Los Angeles debut. Starting November 21, Santa Anita Park will transform into a 10-acre holiday playground, complete with twinkling lights, ice trails, festive food, and a Christmas maze so big they’re calling it “The World’s Largest.”

Brace yourself: the holidays are about to get a little more…acrobatic.
This winter, Cirque Musica Holiday Wonderland is hauling its glittery, gravity-defying holiday spectacle through over 80 cities across the U.S. and Canada—including right here in Los Angeles on December 17, 2025.
For every dusty Western movie you’ve seen with a stoic white cowboy riding off into the sunset, there’s a lesser-known truth: one in four actual cowboys in the American West was Black. And starting June 14, Black Cowboys: An American Story at The Autry Museum sets the record straight—with boots, bull riders, and a whole lot of history.
Running through January 4, 2026, the exhibition isn’t just about filling in the gaps—it’s about rewriting the narrative. Visitors will meet the cowboys (and cowgirls) who tamed wild horses, worked ranches, wore the badge, and yes, even headlined rodeos long before the mainstream caught on. It’s a powerful reminder that the Black West wasn’t a side plot—it was central to the story all along.
