Weekend roundup: Things to do in L.A. (Apr 24–26)

Los Angeles has a packed April 24–26 weekend, with 23 picks ranging from Burbank attractions to Westside street closures and museum stops. (secretlosangeles.com) Secret Los Angeles published its weekend guide on April 22 and framed it as a Friday-to-Sunday list for April 24, April 25, and April 26, 2026. The roundup spans concerts, film outings, shopping pop-ups, outdoor viewing, and neighborhood events across the city. (secretlosangeles.com) One of the newest entries is Superman Experience: Defenders Unite at Warner Bros. Studio in Burbank, which opened April 18 and runs as a roughly 25-minute interactive attraction using gameplay and immersive effects. The venue lists it as part of the studio tour experience at Stage 5 on the backlot. (secretlosangeles.com; wbstudiotour.com) Another weekend anchor is CicLAvia—West LA on Sunday, April 26, from 9 a.m. to 4 p.m. The nonprofit says the route connects Santa Monica Boulevard and Westwood Boulevard and opens the corridor to people on foot, bikes, skates, and scooters instead of cars. (ciclavia.org) That event gives this weekend a clear Sunday centerpiece because it is free, runs for seven hours, and marks the first CicLAvia Sunday of the 2026 season. CicLAvia also says the April 26 route is brand new and is its 65th open-streets event since 2010. (ciclavia.org; ciclavia.org) The roundup also leans on spring institutions that are easier to reach without committing to a full festival day. The Natural History Museum’s Butterfly Pavilion is running this season at 900 Exposition Blvd., and the museum says it is open today from 9:30 a.m. to 5 p.m. with separate ticketing for special experiences. (secretlosangeles.com; nhm.org; nhm.org) For shoppers, the guide points to Damson Madder’s High Summer pop-up, which Secret Los Angeles says runs April 23–26 in Echo Park and covers 3,000 square feet. That makes it one of the list’s limited-run stops, with the closing date landing on Sunday. (secretlosangeles.com) The list also folds in lower-cost options like catching a movie at one of Los Angeles theaters and browsing public-facing destinations rather than ticketed concerts alone. Secret Los Angeles presents the guide as a citywide planning tool rather than a single-neighborhood calendar. (secretlosangeles.com) For people starting in southeast Los Angeles County, the practical split is simple: Friday and Saturday favor destination stops like Burbank, Exposition Park, or Echo Park, while Sunday centers on the West LA street event. By the end of April 26, most of this weekend’s picks either close out or roll into the city’s broader spring calendar. (secretlosangeles.com; ciclavia.org; secretlosangeles.com)
