LA things do to: All-Star Oceanfront in Santa Monica, Play Ball Park in downtown to bring family fun

Fans can head to the Santa Monica Pier or the LA Convention Center this weekend to catch the MLB All-Star experience.

SANTA ANA, Calif. (CNS) - Fan events leading up to Tuesday's Major League Baseball All-Star Game at Dodger Stadium begin Friday with the Capital One All-Star Oceanfront at Santa Monica Pier and Santa Monica State Beach, All-Star Week's first beach event.

The event will feature casual and instructional youth baseball and softball activities on the beach directly south of the pier, along with daily yoga classes. There will also be baseball-themed sand sculptures.

There will be batting and pitching cages on the pier deck above, along with interactive games. Official All-Star merchandise will be available for purchase.

All-Star Oceanfront will be open from 11 a.m. through 7 p.m. daily through Sunday. Hourlong yoga classes will be offered at 9 a.m. Saturday and Sunday.

Meanwhile, in downtown, fans can also get a different set of MLB experiences at the Capital One Play Ball Park at the Los Angeles Convention Center. Unlike the Oceanfront, tickets will be required to enter. Those interested in going can click here for tickets.
