Saturday, October 31, 2026, 7:00 PM - 6:00 AM · The Lighthouse Cafe, Hermosa Beach, Los Angeles
Halloween Day lineup at The Lighthouse Cafe in Hermosa Beach runs from a noon set by Pet Project through an 11PM set by DJ Ricky Rocks. Charis and The Groove performs at 4PM and that show is ticketed.
A beachfront jazz institution that smells faintly of salt air, spilled beer, and musical history, in the best possible way. By day it’s a casual surf-adjacent hang, but at night the lights go low and the room fills with serious players, serious listeners, and people who wandered in and accidentally learned something. The walls have seen legends, the bar keeps it simple, and the energy lands somewhere between reverent and rowdy depending on the set. You come for the music, stay because there’s nowhere else you’d rather be mid-song, mid-drink, mid-moment.
Jalapeño tequila, pineapple, lime, black salt. A spicy, sweet, and salty seaside classic.
Tempura fried codfish, salsa verde, radish, crema. A Hermosa Beach staple since 1949.
Buttermilk chicken sando with kogi slaw, sweet pickle, gochujang mayo. A Hermosa Beach staple.
