The Hollywood Bowl 2016 calendar promises to have something for everyone. Whether you’re a local or a tourist, the Bowl is a must-visit venue. It really doesn’t matter who’s performing…it’s more about enjoying a warm summer Southern California night with 18,000 other music lovers. It’s one of the few venues that allows guests on most nights to bring in their picnic baskets, wine and beverages. There’s even off-site areas with tables to set up your feast.
As always, take one of the many shuttles to the Hollywood Bowl, or walk if possible. There is stacked parking, and it’s not recommended to get stuck in this jam of vehicles, especially after the show. There are local businesses that open up their lots. Depending on supply and demand, off-site parking can cost up to $30. Some visitors park down at the Hollywood & Highland complex and shuttle over.
Some upcoming shows for the Hollywood Bowl 2016:
