Located at the Peter Strauss Ranch theater nestled in the Santa Monica Mountains in Agoura Hills, this event is an annual summer concert series, with the first performance being on Mother’s Day! If your mom likes music and the feel of the Hollywood Bowl, but smaller and more casual and rustic, then you might want to consider including a concert as part of her Mother’s Day itinerary.
