The best concerts in L.A. this July

After a headlining set at Coachella and Dodger Stadium—and then a brief pause for some solo work—the superstar K-pop girl group returns to town for two dates at SoFi Stadium.

Backed by the Los Angeles Philharmonic, Oscar-winning film composer Alexandre Desplat takes to the stage at the Hollywood Bowl to conduct selections from his scores for The Imitation Game, The Curious Case of Benjamin Button, the King’s Speech, Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows, The Shape of Water and a trio of Wes Anderson flicks: Fantastic Mr. Fox, The Grand Budapest Hotel and The French Dispatch. Note that unlike the bulk of the Bowl’s film programming, this is purely a classical music performance and won’t feature any visuals from the highlighted movies.

I’m not okay: After a few increasingly large local shows, aughts pop-punk fixture My Chemical Romance again returns to L.A. for its biggest concert yet—this time around at Dodger Stadium. The band will be celebrating its much-loved album The Black Parade at this show, which includes support from local outfit Wallows.
