About Roam

A weekend guide for
Long Beach families.

One app. Real events. Picked by people who actually live here, and have kids the same age as yours.

We built Roam because every parent we know has the same problem: you want to do something with your kids this weekend, you spend thirty minutes scrolling through Instagram, Eventbrite, and the Aquarium's website, and you give up and end up at Target.

Roam fixes that. Free events, paid events, classes, popups, markets, story times, mural festivals — anything happening in Long Beach worth doing with kids. Filter by age, neighborhood, date, price. Save events to your phone calendar in one tap. See who else from the community will be there.

Not every event makes it in. We screen for the stuff parents actually want to know about, and skip the noise.

What's in it
The good stuff.
  • Real local events, screened for quality
  • Free, paid, classes, popups, festivals
  • Filter by age, neighborhood, date, price
  • One-tap save to your phone calendar
  • See which parents from the community are going
  • Hand-picked by people who actually live here
What's not
Everything else.
  • Sponsored placements pretending to be picks
  • Out-of-town events that waste your scroll time
  • Chain store "events" we don't believe in
  • Generic listings copied from Eventbrite
  • Endless scroll. We'd rather show you less.

Long Beach first.
Other cities, when we earn the right.

Launching August 2026. We're starting here because this is where we live, and because doing one city well matters more than doing twenty cities badly.

Built by parents, for parents.
