In September 2026, Los Angeles will hum with a vibrant mix of arts, entertainment, and cultural celebrations. Music lovers can catch high‑profile concerts—like LCD Soundsystem & Pulp co‑headlining at the Hollywood Bowl on September 25–26—while the culinary and festival scene comes alive with events such as Los Angeles Oktoberfest on September 26. The natural world and museums will also play a role in the city’s rhythms; for instance, the Natural History Museum’s historic diorama halls are being revived in a centennial celebration exhibition through mid‑month. And for those less into mainstream fare, the 84th World Science Fiction Convention (Worldcon)—though centered in Anaheim—will draw fans from across the LA region and beyond. From art and spectacle to music and local festivals, September 2026 promises something for nearly every passion in the City of Angels.
