If your week could use a reset, Downtown Culver City has plans for you. The city’s beloved Vibes After 5 series is wrapping up its spring run with one final community gathering at Town Plaza at The Culver Steps.
And it’s shaping up to be the perfect excuse to skip rush hour and lean into a slower, more social evening. Admission is free and open to the public!
Set against the backdrop of Downtown Culver City, the free event invites locals to unwind with music, dancing, games, and refreshing nonalcoholic drinks while the sun sets over the plaza.
A midweek reset in the heart of Culver City
Taking place on Wednesday, May 13 from 5 to 8 p.m., the event transforms Town Plaza at The Culver Steps into an after-work hangout designed for connection and community.
Guests can expect a laid-back atmosphere complete with:
- lawn games
