Whether you’re using the weekend to wind down or celebrating Father’s Day, Los Angeles has a lot to offer you. From films at a drive-in to The Happening premiering on Friday the 13th and the FIFA World Cup Qualifier, there are more than enough activities for you and Dad.
FILM
- Angel City Drive-In: Meatballs | Saturday, June 14, 2008 | 7 p.m. | $10 | Angel City Drive-In - Map | The week is over, you’re happy and I’m happy.

Food will be provided by the Angel City Derby Girls, there is new Astroturf and DJ Morgan will be playing songs before the movie beings. If you’ve never been to a Drive-In (shame on you), you should know that your FM Transmitter puts the sound into your car and you are welcome to BYOB.
