Downtown Alhambra is centrally located in Los Angeles County, and is the gateway to the west side of the San Gabriel Valley. Situated east of Los Angeles, the area is referred to as a fusion of tastes, sights, and sounds that form a beautiful scene of culture and diversity.
The concentrated area known as the “Alhambra Mosaic,” brings a mix of restaurants, retail shops, specialty boutiques, cafes, and entertainment venues, centrally situated around a one-mile radius from Main Street and Garfield Ave intersection.
Some of the fun yearly events include: Alhambra Pumpkin Run and Halloween Fest, annual Tree Lighting Ceremony, Dine Alhambra Restaurant Week (formerly Taste of Alhambra), St. Paddy’s Day Pub Crawl, and SuperHero Summer Fest, all presented by the Downtown Alhambra Business Association and Alhambra Chamber of Commerce.
