If your group chat has been asking, “So what’s the plan this weekend?” we have you covered. Between pizza nights, Monster Jam, Ducks Day festivities, ice skating fundraisers, and Lunar New Year parades, there is no excuse to stay bored.

It’s also a week to pause and appreciate the steady anchors in our city. Check out local spots like Linbrook Bowl and Pizza Factory that keep our weekends grounded!

Scroll through, pick your favorite, and get something on the calendar.

🍕 Hand-tossed sanity for the weekend finish line

Pizza Factory provides the kind of Anaheim hospitality that settles the rush. Their hand-tossed dough leans toward a pillowy perfection, especially when supporting the weight of a topping-heavy Factory Special.

The seasoned mozzarella sticks provide a reliable crunch, while the chicken carbonara pizza offers a savory detour from the usual. It’s the neighborhood choice for a quiet, hard-earned evening.

🎳 Midnight strikes and retro neon glows

Linbrook Bowl has held down the corner of Lincoln and Brookhurst since 1958, and walking inside feels like stepping back into a classic slice of history.

It captures that golden age spirit with forty polished lanes and those iconic vintage vibes that are getting harder to find. You can settle into a booth at the diner for a casual bite or head over to the Kopa Room where the karaoke starts up later in the week.

There is a real sense of community here, whether folks are gathered for the Comedy TV trivia on February 21st or coming together for the Red Cross blood drive in the banquet room on March 2nd. It is an anchor that reminds us why these local spots matter so much.

🦆 Anaheim Ducks Day brings exclusive treats

The Gist: Magic Key holders can pick up a free commemorative drink coozie at Disney California Adventure on February 22. This bright orange souvenir features Ducks Day graphics and is available at the Kingswell Shop on Buena Vista Street while supplies last. The celebration includes player appearances, a fan rally, and mascot sightings throughout the park.

Why It Matters: It is a fun way for local fans to celebrate our home team and snag a limited piece of memorabilia during a day of hockey-themed festivities. Visit the Kingswell Shop from park open to park close on February 22 to claim your gift.

🚌 Shuttle service stays for Toy Story lot

The Gist: Disneyland confirmed that shuttle service between the Toy Story parking area and the resort will continue even after the Anaheim Resort Transportation (ART) system shuts down. While the broader bus network that connects local hotels and the convention center ends this spring, Disney will maintain a dedicated connection for guests using the Toy Story lot.

Why It Matters: This ensures a reliable, cost-free way for local families and visitors to reach the park entrance without worrying about the loss of public transit routes.

What’s Next: The current ART bus system will officially end all operations on March 31st.

🐾 Time to welcome a steady companion like Banner into your home!
