Where to Celebrate NYE in El Segundo

Finish the Gundo year strong

Hello, Gundo đź‘‹ 

Most weeks we say there’s a lot going on in town. This week… there’s not. Everyone’s on vacation.

However, there are a few events here and there — and, of course, they all culminate with plenty of New Year’s Eve parties around town.

We suspect more parties and events will be announced over the next few days. When we spot them, we’ll share them on the Hello Gundo Instagram.

WHAT’S HAPPENIN’

We follow 150+ Instagram accounts, Facebook pages and groups, websites, and email lists to put together this comprehensive guide to everything happening in El Segundo this week.

Though we strive for 100% accuracy, as we all know too well: Schedules are subject to change. All event details are based on latest information on websites/social media. We’ve also called, DMed, and/or visited to confirm whenever possible.

Who are you and why are you doing this?

We’re Sam and Angie Greenspan, El Segundo residents and since 2016 and major El Segundo boosters ever since.

We also believed we were the right people to give this town its first newsletter.

Angie’s a realtor who works here in town and all over L.A. — so she’s plugged in to everything happening and has been a de facto source for local event info for years. Sam’s a writer and works in email marketing.

Please spread the word!
