South Bay Scream, Richard Blade At The Redondo Pier & Hermosa Beach Bar Parties
Especially if you’re single.
That’s because the people of the South Bay love to dress up and go to Halloween parties. There are not house parties all over the place like there are for the Fourth of July, but rather events at bars, a screamin’ party that is not at the Portofino this year, a haunted hotel and several more events.
So put on your costume, grab your witch’s brew and get to know what’s happening in the LA Beach Cities of Hermosa, Manhattan & Redondo Beach for Halloween & Halloween weekend.
But before reading this, take this PubClub tour down The Strand to check out these “scary” houses!

There is also a trick or treat at Riviera Village in Redondo Beach in which some shops hand out candy, and for adults, you can stroll around and hit a few of the restaurants and/or bars. It’s called the Riviera Village Halloween Stroll. It’s early, 4-6 p.m. Hey, just in time for Happy Hour!
