Best Things To Do in Los Angeles in February 2022 with Kids: Valentine's Day, Presidents Day
February brings plenty of things to do in Los Angeles as it kicks off with Lunar New Year before we have Groundhog Day, Valentine's Day, and a nice long weekend for Presidents Day! Don’t miss our favorite kid-friendly events and activities in Los Angeles this month.
Hey sports fans, February comes ready to play! First up is the Winter Olympics, this year in Beijing, China. Hot on its tail, NASCAR Cup racing makes its debut at the Coliseum. But perhaps the biggest story comes the following weekend, with the eyes of the nation on our very own Inglewood as the Super Bowl comes to town. Don't worry if you can't get tickets for the big event: Annenberg PetSpace's Puppy Bowl Pup Rally promises to be equally thrilling. And close out our sports-themed month with the Harlem Globetrotters, the undefeated champs of sheer entertainment.
It's also the month of love, so check out 20 Ways To Show Your Kids You Love Them This Valentine's Day. And remember why you love February in LA, where you can play one day at the beach and spend the next day in the snow. Don't miss all the LA winter fun you'll find in our Winter Activities Guide for Los Angeles Kids.
Be sure to check with the venue for its COVID guidelines and requirements before heading out to any event. Many places in LA now require guests to show either proof of vaccination or a negative test; some events are still getting canceled or postponed at the last minute. We are doing our best to keep up with the changes, but strongly encourage you to check with the venue before an event.World Read Aloud Day Book Fest
