AUGUST 24 – OCTOBER 26, 2024

Summertime in L.A.’s Marina means gathering your friends for a picnic and watching movies on the big screen under the stars. The Los Angeles County Department of Beaches & Harbors presents Marina del Rey Movie Nights in Burton Chace Park! Movies start at 8 p.m. but arrive by 7 to pick out your spot on the lawn. Free admission! In addition to a picnic dinner, bring a blanket or some low-profile beach chairs and enjoy this popular event series. The 10-acre park is surrounded on three sides by the water, so come early for picture taking and to stroll the perimeter walking path.

SEATING

Seating is festival style on the park lawn and available on a first come, first served basis. Bring your own blanket or a low-back beach chair. Tents and umbrellas are not allowed. While there is no reserved seating, wheelchair users are welcome to sit along the concrete path.

Eventbrite tickets are not required for concert admission, and having a ticket does not guarantee entry into the park (the park will close if it reaches capacity). Your RSVP simply helps concert organizers anticipate the crowd size for staffing purposes.

GETTING HERE

WATERBUS

The WaterBus operates on Fridays, Saturdays and Sundays and Labor Day through September 1. These boats pick up from 8 stops in the Marina and cost just $1 each trip. Since parking lots closest to the park fill quickly, consider parking at a farther lot and taking the WaterBus to the park.

BEACH SHUTTLE

The Beach Shuttle offers free transportation on weekends and holidays on a set loop between Playa Vista, Marina del Rey, and the Venice Pier. Enjoy direct drop-offs and pick-ups at the Burton Chace Park entrance on concert nights. Click here for a map.

UBER/LYFT

Call your rideshare driver to a location away from heavy traffic flow. We recommend finding a safe meeting place with a visible landmark, such as a gas station or restaurant, and do not attempt pickups and drop-offs along the street.
