Night on Broadway: Celebrating 7 Years of Bringing Back Broadway

9:49 AM PST on January 26, 2015

Night On Broadway (www.NightOnBroadway.la) will feature innovative, multi-cultural entertainment programming in more than a half dozen of Broadway’s historic theatres, open to the public especially for this event, in celebration of the 7th anniversary of Councilmember José Huizar’s Bringing Back Broadway - a 10-year plan for Broadway’s revitalization.

 

It has been decades since this many of Broadway's historic theatres have been open for entertainment on the same night!  You will not want to miss Nova Han presents Wilderbe,String TheoryTwo Bit CircusNoH8Dance Mob NationChessboxingJessica FichotThe Skylarks, and others, plus a screening of Fritz Lang's 1937 masterpiece Metropolis!

 

An on-street festival area will feature booths and pop-up shops from DTLA businesses, a vintage car show including the L.A.F.D. 1931 Seagrave Fire Hose Wagon, a family-friendly kids’ area (including a soccer kick activity with members of the L.A. Galaxy), and a festival stage featuring even more live entertainment.

 

Broadway restaurants, bars and businesses will be open, many offering specials for Night on Broadway participants. Local artists will exhibit their work. The Museum of Neon Art will provide tours of Broadway's historic neon signs (advance reservations required for this activity only.)

 

More than a dozen food trucks will be on site, and Broadway’s historic Grand Central Market vendors will be open late with special Night on Broadway programming.

 

Night On Broadway will be free and open to the public for all ages. Enjoy, explore, and create your own unique Night on Broadway!
