LAWeekly Instagram: Featuring the culture of LA since 1978 ✌️

Since launching in 2010, the Hollywood Fringe Fest Since launching in 2010, the Hollywood Fringe Festival has served as a proving ground for some of Los Angeles’s most daring live performances, and few corners of the festival have evolved as dramatically as clowning. What was once a niche discipline has grown into one of its most vibrant and inventive features. We’re not talking about bonk-on-the-head, flower-squirt-in-the-eye Ronald McDonald clowning here — contemporary clown shows blend physical comedy, improvisation, audience interaction and experimental theater, creating performances that can be hilarious, uncomfortable, moving and unpredictable all at once. Running now through June 28, Hollywood Fringe is a great place to check out some of clown's biggest names, and some up-and-comers just before they become big-time. @hollywoodfringe Here's a sampling of some shows you should see, and see the full list thru @laweekly ✍️ @boyface_ 📸 1: Photo by @softknox courtesy of @verocherryclown 2: @acid_reflux_molly by @shromcom 3: @alexnauta by @arianahoshino 4: @tiredjustwakeup & @levinep90 by @adambussell 5: @mrdeanevans by @marianovastudio 6: @farhan__inc by Issy Walker 7: @corndudemax by @alexgolshani 8: @the_proactive_pessimist by @stagetone.studio 9: @sjgeez 10: Brian Byrne by Bradyn Woods
70,492 fans watched the United States dominate Par 70,492 fans watched the United States dominate Paraguay 4-1 in their opening match of the 2026 World Cup at Los Angeles Stadium (renamed from SoFi Stadium for the Cup), today, June 12. Commentators described it as the best U.S. performance in a half after scoring three goals in the first 45 minutes. The first U.S. goal came from Paraguay midfielder Damián Bobadilla, who scored an own goal, followed by two by U.S. forward Folarin Balogun. U.S. midfielder Giovanni Reyna scored a golazo in the 98th minute following a 20-pass full team play, putting a 4 on the scoreboard, the most goals the U.S. has ever scored in a World Cup game. The U.S. showed off their attacking prowess, playmaking and teamwork, maintaining 65% possession throughout the match. Fans across the Southland rooted the U.S. on, including at the Fan Fest at the Coliseum. The game featured the U.S. opening ceremony headlined by Katy Perry and Future, with additional performances by Anitta, LISA, Rema and Tyla.

The match featured three red cards, two for South Africa, one for Mexico, also a record for an opening match. The opening ceremony featured performances by Shakira, Burna Boy and a number of others including J Balvin, Ejae and Tyla. See the gallery and recap thru @laweekly ✍️ @boyface_ 📸 Getty Images
Santa Monica's Main St. institution Circle Bar reo Santa Monica's Main St. institution Circle Bar reopened May 22 under new ownership from local restaurateurs Mark and Addie Van Gessel, the team behind Hinano Cafe and Tavern on Main. Originally established in 1949, Circle Bar evolved from a neighborhood watering hole into a fixture of Santa Monica’s nightlife and music scene. Over the decades, its dimly lit atmosphere, packed dance floor, and oval-shaped bar attracted everyone from artists and musicians to locals, with late-night drop-ins including Jim Morrison, Truman Capote, Anthony Kiedis, Sean Penn and Robert Downey Jr. The reimagined venue keeps the same floor plan it has had since 1949 while introducing upgrades to sound, lighting, and production. A new elevated DJ booth, “The Halo,” puts music at the center of the room, supported by a new sound system, enhanced lighting, and visual programming. The refreshed cocktail menu blends Circle Bar’s classic dive-bar spirit with new additions, alongside late-night offerings and daily Power Hour specials. @circlebar_sm Read the story and see the photos thru @laweekly ✍️ @michelestueven 📸 @trosephotos 📹 @djnarc
