LA Marathon Sunday? The UCLA Camp Fair Is Still Easy to Reach

Families across Los Angeles are getting ready for the LA Camp Fair in Pauley Pavilion at UCLA this Sunday from Noon–3 PM, one of the biggest opportunities of the year to explore summer camps in one place.

At the same time, the LA Marathon will be taking place across the city. Some families have asked whether marathon road closures will make it difficult to reach UCLA.

The good news: getting to the UCLA Camp Fair is still easy.

Most marathon closures are located south of UCLA along Wilshire Boulevard, Santa Monica Boulevard, and the Century City finish area. UCLA sits north of these streets, so several convenient routes remain open for families attending the event.

Best Routes to UCLA

• 405 Freeway → Sunset Boulevard → UCLA
  Exit the 405 at Sunset Boulevard and head east toward campus. Enter UCLA via Westwood Plaza.
• Sunset Boulevard → Westwood Plaza
  Families coming from Brentwood or Pacific Palisades can simply follow Sunset directly into UCLA.
• Beverly Glen → Sunset Boulevard → UCLA
  If you're coming from Beverly Hills or Hollywood, Beverly Glen is an easy way to reach Sunset and approach campus from the north.

Streets to Avoid

• Wilshire Boulevard near Century City
• Santa Monica Boulevard near the marathon finish
• Driving through Century City during peak marathon activity
