Welcome to 'Things to do in Los Angeles' on this vibrant Sunday, January 5, 2025 As we kick off the new year, Los Angeles is buzzing with energy, despite the mild winter chill in the air. The sun is shining bright, and the city is ready to embrace another exciting weekend.

Today's vibe is set by a mix of cultural events, sports, and unique experiences. Here are a few key events to check out:

- If you're into the unusual, head over to the Los Angeles Convention Center for the Los Angeles Oddities & Curiosities Expo 2025. This event, running through January 5, is a treasure trove for those fascinated by taxidermy, antique medical devices, and other curious items. You can even take a taxidermy class or learn to pin beetles and spiders[1].

- For a dose of classical music, glide across the ice at The Hill Los Angeles during their Classical Sundays Skate Session. Classical California (KUSC) provides the perfect holiday soundtrack as you enjoy your last laps on the ice for the season[1].

- In the evening, punk rock enthusiasts can catch Black Flag live at the Whisky a Go Go in West Hollywood. This iconic band has been a cornerstone of punk since 1976, and there's no better place to experience their raw energy than at this legendary venue[1].

- Sports fans are in for a treat as well, with the Los Angeles Clippers taking on the Atlanta Hawks at Crypto.com Arena, and the Rams facing off against the Seahawks at home. Plus, the number one-ranked UCLA women’s basketball team played Indiana yesterday, but you can still catch the highlights[1][3].

In local news, Kawhi Leonard made his season debut for the Los Angeles Clippers after a nine-month hiatus, marking a significant return for the team[3].

For those looking to explore more of what Los Angeles has to offer, here are a few must-do activities:

- Visit Descanso Gardens for their Enchanted Forest of Light, a magical display of lights and sounds that is a perfect seasonal experience[2].

- Take a stroll through Thai Town, where you can indulge in some of the best Thai food in America. Start your day at Silom Supermarket, try creamy Thai coffees at Sapp Café, and enjoy papaya salad at Ruen Pair. This hidden gem is a culinary delight that will introduce you to the rich culture of the Thai community[4].

- For a unique outdoor experience, hike through Griffith Park at dusk and take in the breathtaking views of the city from Mount Hollywood or Mount Lee. This massive park is a wild heart of Los Angeles, offering a chance to see coyotes, owls, and other wildlife[4].

Here’s a local tip: When exploring Smorgasburg Los Angeles, a weekly open-air food festival in Downtown LA, try the "smorg hacks" recommended by Zach Brooks, the general manager. Take items from different vendors and create your own unique dishes, like a lobster, bean, and cheese burrito. This approach ensures you get to taste a wide array of what LA has to offer food-wise[4].

As we wrap up this weekend, keep an eye out for upcoming events like Matthew Bourne’s Swan Lake at the Ahmanson Theatre and Disney’s Frozen at the Hollywood Pantages Theatre. Tomorrow promises more exciting activities, so be sure to tune in for more 'Things to do in Los Angeles' to stay in the loop.

Until next time, enjoy the city's endless possibilities and make the most of your day in LA
