The Grove Los Angeles

Family nights for the neighborhood

""The Grove" added upscale shopping and a movie theatre in Holywood, Los Angeles. I love going to the Apple Store and looking at the devices I can't afford!"

Right next to the historic Farmer's Market on 3rd, the Grove is an addition to the area. Built in 2002, the Grove added upscale shopping and a movie theatre to the Hollywood area.

Buildings set in an Art Deco style; the Grove is different from the rural looking Farmer's Market. Both attract both local and foreign visitors every day.

The fountain at the Grove is a major attraction for pictures of the mall. I prefer to visit the Apple Store and test out all the devices I can't afford yet. One time I went there in a blue shirt by accident!

For locals, lunch at the Grove and the Farmer's Market is a frequent event. Free parking for 1 hour or parking validation. I usually park at the Farmer's Market and buy freshly squeezed juice for the parking validation. What is great about the Grove is their offer of a multitude of events throughout the year.

They have special sponsored events now. Pretty lively.

There are different events for all seasons of the year. One great summer, the Grove hosted free outdoors movies for the family. I went to see Spiderman and Indiana Jones that summer.

Check the calendar for monthly events. They've added lots of weekend events now.

Gold Apple Watch is at this store. I got an Apple Watch :-) Oh, get a Nylon Band.
