Lunar New Year at Port of Los Angeles

So I came here with my boyfriend, my best friend and her boyfriend after going to the travel show. I think we should have gone elsewhere… since we were only a few miles away being in Long Beach already it wasn’t a big deal going here. However, if you had a drive to get here… you are better off going somewhere else.
This celebration was TINY! It is at the Port of Los Angeles in San Pedro. There were 3 food trucks, a performance stage, an info booth, petting zoo, and various craft booths.
The good things about this event was that it was free: free parking, free entrance and the activities were free.
There was a replica of the big rubber ducky that was here before. At the information booth, they have some bookmarkers with the various animals for the different years. The petting zoo had lots of baby animals that were so cute.
Overall, there wasn’t much to do… at least parking was free and so was entrance. Personally, I would have preferred to pay a few bucks for a much better event. This event lasted from 3−7pm, with a fireworks finale at 7pm. However, due to the lack of actitivties, many people left early. We were there a little after 5pm and left before 6pm and saw and did everything there was to do. I wanted to see the fireworks… but to sit around for a whole hour doing nothing… it was too much for us to bear and we all left early.
Would I go to this event again if they have it next year? I would not. It’s not worth the time and effort getting out here.
