It’s September alright, Summer is almost over and kids are going back to school. Thank goodness there is still lots to do because even as the season is almost over and its going to get a little less warm, there is still plenty of sunshine in California this month.
Los Angeles is still dealing with the uninvited guest known as Corona these days, so keep on the lookout with the news regarding safety and health recommendations. Many places at this time are requiring masks, vaccinated or not, so don’t forget to check the signs at the door or research before going.
Enjoy this list of events and fun times we gathered for you for the month of September 2021 and go ahead and plan for an epic end of summer LA Hacker style.
1 – Go See A Game at the New Sofi-Stadium
Description:
Football season is back and LA has the good fortune of two NFL teams; The Rams and the Chargers! And they now have a new home worthy of Americas best city, the incredible Sofi Stadium.
Thanks to the new Sofi Stadium, Los Angeles is now home of the largest, newest and most technologically advanced venue in the entire NFL. (Take that Cowboys, not everything is bigger in Texas).
The NFL will kick off in early September so plenty of opportunities to catch a game this month. But also on non day games you can get a group tour of the stadium. Its about 2 hours and its amazing. The first 1/2 they take you around the inside and explain what went into building it. In the last part of the tour you actually get to run out on the field! (not 100% sure if they do this part during the season so double check)

Also note that outside of September there will be some huge events coming to Sofi in the future.
For example did you know Sofi Stadium will be the spot for Super Bowl LVI in 2022? Yeah!! Its going to be an expensive ticket but even if you cant go, the whole city will be electrified. Also get ready to watch as this amazing stadium hosts the College Football Championship Game in 2023, and the Opening and Closing Ceremonies of the Olympic Games in 2028.
