Manhattan Beach is home to many special events throughout the year. Here's your chance to mark your calendars and make sure you don't miss a date in 2022.
Note that all events are subject to change. For the latest updates and newest events, check the MB News
Also note: The Manhattan Beach Unified School District does not approve its 2022/23 calendar until later in the year, so the 2022 school start date and Thanksgiving/winter vacation dates are not yet available.
