Hands-on museum visits, theatre, and parks for everyday outings
La Habra offers cultural and outdoor destinations that can be enjoyed in manageable visits. A children’s museum trip, a theatre performance, or a walk through a city park can each form the center of a day. Several stops share the Portola Park area, while other parks offer different recreation choices. Check official program and park information for the experience you want, particularly when planning a performance, group activity, or visit with young children.

Visitor informationThe Depot Theatre is a local stage for plays, musicals, and other performances in the historic depot setting. Choose a show from its current calendar rather than expecting daily drop-in entertainment. Check the operator’s booking and access information before planning an evening around it.
