we have just returned from Los Angeles, and going to the Hollywood Bowl was one of the highlights. We took the shuttle bus from hollywood/highland, (free with our metro ticket) arriving early to soak up the atmosphere.The concert we saw was "Blame it on Rio"with Bebel Gilberto, excellent from start to finish!! The fireworks providing a dramatic finale. We then... more

We had very high expectations of this event and researched the Hollywood Bowl to death (though it was hard to find information detailed information about the Hollywood Bowl). We couldn't find the time the program would end or when the fireworks would start. We also couldn't figure out how long the program was. We actually had a lot of other... more

The Hollywood Bowl is a must see in Los Angeles. It is a wonderful way to enjoy a concert in the open air, and get to see some wonderful performances. However, this year things went wrong during my July 4th concert experience. First of all, the buses used to be a great way to get to and from the Bowl... more

There's nothing like attending a concert at the Hollywood Bowl on a warm summer evening in LA. I don't know of any where else that has the atmosphere of this place. Picnic baskets are encouraged, if not practically mandatory, as is a good bottle of wine or two. Spread your blanket along one of the many walkways located at the... more

The Hollywood Bowl a very impressive venue, with great sound, and beautiful surroundings. But the bench seats are cramped and uncomfortable. The worst thing about this place is the crowd that attends. I will probably not go again because I had yet another show ruined by people talking. The whole section I sat in was sat down for 75% of... more

This is a “must do” during an LA visit. Sitting under the stars, watching an event, on a warm Southern California evening gives you a glimpse into the area’s attraction. Having read all of the previous reviews about ticket costs, conditions, etc, I can say they are accurate. However, if you go with the right attitude, you will enjoy yourself.... more

This is a small, but wonerful museum on the name shows, concerts, and history of the Hollywood Bowl. You can listen to past concerts, view short films/tapes on events, and learn more about the area. Many name Hollywood acts have gone through the area. The best time to see the museum before going to the Hollywood Bowl for a summer... more

We went last night to AFI's THE BIG PICTURE which did a countdown of the top 25 Hollywood Musicals of all time. The event itself was wonderful. We splurged on Terrace box seats and it was soooo much more comfortable than the Super Seats or benches. I managed to find box seats on Craig's List a week beofre the show... more

Just returned to England from touring in the States. This included staying in LA and a visit to the Hollywood Bowl. It was a Saturday night in July and we were staying just 15 minutes walk away. We had no tickets, but decided to walk up there and see what was available. The Sound of Music was on that night... more

You haven't lived in LA or visited LA until you've gone to the Hollywood Bowl. The experience is just as good in the bench seats as it is in the boxes. And as the previous reviewer noted, most of the boxes are purchased by the season holder, high-society elite of LA. Unless you are with a group of 4 and... more
