    A wonderful place to hang out and have a conversation, drink some coffee, or bring your kids (playing in the fountain is allowed/encouraged). Sunny and open with plenty of spots to have a seat.

    The ideal park: quiet, yet right in the middle of downtown, ample seating, clean, amazing views of great buildings like City Hall and a nice coffee shop. Every neighborhood needs one a Grand Park.

    Love the environment, specially around 7-9pm the sun sets. It's not too hot or cold. The view is nice. You can walk or work out safely.

    While it may not be as secluded as some of the other parks in L.A., Grand Park still delivers with plenty of great spots to picnic right in the heart of downtown. Read more

    One of the rare nice spots in Downtown LA. There is lots of community events happening. And you can walk in the fountain next to the Starbucks which is a nice refresher on a hot day.

    Spend such a great time with my toddler at the park. Love the big slide and the amazing fountain. Also it's great for walk or jog 👍

    At night they have a jam fest at the park. But you have to park at the music center. My suggestion is to either take the bus or train or you could pay the 9.00 fee at the music center

    If you're going to sit out on the grass for some of the free concerts or events bring a blanket a hat sunglasses and sunscreen. There's no shade on the grass.

    Dip your bare feet in the water. It is lovely watching the fountain change colors as you walk around. Take in a free concert, lunchtime yoga session, farmer's market, or coffee at Starbucks! :-)
