If your Monday night plans call for something slower than a club or a concert, this one is built for lying down and listening. On October 26, sound healer John Gabaldon hosts a full moon sound bath at the Shumei Hollywood Estate, pairing live instruments with cacao and guided meditation.
It is the kind of quiet evening that earns a spot among the things to do in Los Angeles when the week has been loud.
When: Monday, October 26, 2026, 7:30 PM to 8:45 PM Where: Shumei Hollywood Estate, 7406 Franklin Ave, Los Angeles Price: $33 Host: John Gabaldon
What to expect
The session opens with some light breathwork and meditation to settle the room. From there, Gabaldon and a second musician build a sound bath from a long list of instruments: crystal bowls, a crystal harp, Tibetan bowls, a hand pan, drums, a gong, a mouth harp and more. The sounds layer and fade over about an hour and fifteen minutes, with no performance to follow and nothing to do except breathe and listen.
The event title also promises cacao, a traditional drink often served at gatherings like this to ease people into a reflective mood. The listing does not spell out how it is served, so check the ticket page if you have questions about ingredients or dietary needs.
Gabaldon describes his work as breathwork and sound healing concerts for the mind and body. If you have never tried a sound bath, this is a gentle introduction. You do not need any meditation experience.
Practical info
The estate sits on Franklin Avenue in Hollywood, a residential stretch just off the busier boulevards, so plan a little extra time for parking and walking in. Wear something comfortable, and consider bringing a layer, since people tend to lie still for a while. Ask the host or check the ticket page about whether mats or blankets are provided before you go.
Tickets are $33 through allevents.in, and the sale runs up to the event itself. Sound baths like this are small and intimate, so earlier is safer than the day of.
