Hollywood Bowl

The Hollywood Bowl is a 1920s amphitheater in the Hollywood area of Los Angeles, California, United States that is used primarily for music performances. The Hollywood Bowl is known for its band shell, a distinctive set of concentric arches that graced the site from 1929 through 2003, before being replaced with a somewhat larger one beginning in the 2004 season. The shell is set against the backdrop of the Hollywood Hills.

You can bring your own food and drink in and have a picnic before the show. You can bring your own alcohol.

If you don't bring a picnic you can buy food there.

You can see the Hollywood sign from your seat.

You can also eat your picnic at your seat.

Enjoy the show! 4 big screens to help you see show in case your seats are I the back.

Fireworks are at the end of some shows. This was the B52s 9/11/2015
