COUNTY OF LOS ANGELES DEPARTMENT OF PARKS AND RECREATION A MESSAGE
FROM DIRECTOR NORMA EDITH GARCÍA-GONZALEZ
The Hollywood Bowl is a worldclass venue in a beautiful setting.
I am proud that the Bowl is a part of the County of Los Angeles Department of Parks and Recreation (LA County Parks) system. When the Los Angeles Philharmonic and other performers are not onstage, the Hollywood Bowl is open to the public for recreation and exercise.
LA County Parks and the LA Phil partner to enhance the dual role of the Hollywood Bowl as a public park and a world-class performance venue. The Hollywood Bowl o ers a magnificent park where visitors can stroll, bring out-of-town guests, take pictures in front of the iconic shell, and learn about the Bowl’s history at the on-site museum. The Hollywood Bowl is also the perfect setting for a great workout, with exercise enthusiasts taking advantage of the steps throughout the park.
The Hollywood Bowl never falls short of o ering a dynamic summer concert series creating memories and experiences for families, friends, and visitors alike. Summer at the Bowl is certainly a time of excitement, not only for music lovers but also for those who work behind the scenes to make it a memorable experience for all.
The 2023 Hollywood Bowl season features diverse music and exceptional performances for all ages and music enthusiasts. This summer’s lineup includes the hallmark Classical Tuesdays and Thursdays, Weekend Spectaculars—including Quincy Jones’ 90th-Birthday Tribute—and of course the annual July Fourth Fireworks Spectacular.
LA County Parks and the LA Phil have also partnered to support the Hollywood Bowl access program by providing youth and older adults the opportunity to experience the magic of the Bowl. This partnership serves to further strengthen the commitment of the LA County Board of Supervisors and LA County Parks to access for all!

As for now, sit back, relax, and enjoy music under the stars.
