Summertime is the best season to explore Downtown Culver City, with its wonderful mix of historic buildings, one-of-a-kind boutiques, galleries, theaters and unique restaurants opening onto tree-lined streets.
Take advantage of Downtown Culver City’s universal valet parking system: cars may be dropped off at any one of the convenient locations, then picked up at another. Free parking is also available for up to one hour in any of Downtown’s three municipal parking structures. Or just leave your car at home and take Uber, Lyft or hop on the Metro’s Expo Line to the Culver City Station.
