Take a sweet “staycation” in Downtown Culver City and enjoy free tastings of Tropical Drinks and Treats. Downtown Culver City is the perfect place to get away without any of the stress of traveling. Say “Aloha” to August with free samples of Tropical Drinks and Treats at participating restaurants, bars and retail establishments. Which business will offer the “Best Tropical Aloha Drink” and “Best Tasty Tropical Treat”? Taste samples and get your Culver City passport stamped—the more samples you try, the more chances to win gift certificates, prizes and more. As the night winds down, listen to live music around town and on the patios. You won't need a designated driver either—Culver City just got a whole lot closer with the opening of the Expo Line's Culver City Station! Summer is the best time to explore Culver City's downtown area; party and play in a neighborhood that is always a good time any day of the year, but especially on the Third Wednesday of every month. Parking is free in municipal structures for up to two hours, or valet parking is available at three convenient Downtown locations. 5 pm-9 pm; south of the 10 Freeway and east of the 405, between the intersection of Culver and Washington Blvds and Dusquene Ave. For a complete list of freebies, offers, discounts and entertainment, go to www.downtownculvercity.com.
