Summer Nights at the Tar Pits

Celebrate a saber-toothed summer with Summer Nights at the Tar Pits.  Grab a drink from the Tar Bar while you relax, get something to eat from our selection of local food trucks, enjoy great music courtesy of DJs from Beat Junkie Institute of Sound and Ladies of Sound and bring a blanket to picnic at the park. Explore the museum as we celebrate the mighty predators of the Ice Age, Saber-Tooth Cats, and talk with scientists about discoveries made right here!

Don’t forget to catch a special discussion—These Hips Don’t Lie: How a collaboration between La Brea Tar Pits and Cedars-Sinai Medical Center reveals social structure in Ice Age saber-toothed cats, with Dr. Robert Klapper and Dr. Mairin Balisi.
