Get out there and do all the things.

Cats, corn, lobster and kitsch fill up the weekend along with a battle of the beards, a ton of art openings and a screening of quintessential L.A. film "Chinatown."

The dog days of summer are here, which roughly translates to "get out of the house and have some fun." We have plenty of options -- with and without air conditioning.

Festivals abound -- of crawfish, pizza, watermelon, jazz, surfing and beers. Plus, the Wu-Tang Clan reunites, the full moon inspires festivities and a "Sleepless" night.

From luchadors and Fraggles to a seafood boil and a sci-fi feminist comedy, this weekend's options are all over the place. And that's just how we like it.

Get out there and do all the things.

From goat yoga and an Anthony Bourdain tribute to the history of 3D in art and all-you-can eat tacos, welcome to Southern California.

From a Greek festival and party for the Colorado Bridge to a screening of "Coco" under the stars and an artwalk in South Gate this weekend boasts tons of outdoor events -- and cooler temperatures. Plus, it's National Ice Cream Day.

The summer heat isn't stopping us from great outdoor concerts and activities. If dark clubs are more your thing, we've also got you covered.

You could be spending your Southern California weekend at a "Hamilton" sing-along, a Night Train dance party, a nighttime bat walk or a mac and cheese beerfest -- to name just a few options.

We're here to help plan your November social calendar.
