Fantasia Barrino
Making the most of your evening
Saturday, June 20th - 8:00PM. |
Buddy Guy was born in Louisiana and came of age in Chicago, where alongside fellow future legends Muddy Waters and Howlin’ Wolf he helped create the Chicago blues. The guitar-heavy, rough-and-tumble style would influence The Rolling Stones and Jimi Hendrix and just about everyone else who’s picked up an electric guitar since. The nine-time Grammy winner returns, alongside a slew of blues greats, for a blowout celebration of his 90th year.
Conductor Philippe Jordan and pianist Jean-Yves Thibaudet bring a special je ne sais quoi to the Hollywood Bowl during an enchanting and exciting night of French music.
With global hits like “I Ain’t Worried” and “Counting Stars,” OneRepublic remains one of the most successful pop-rock bands of the 21st century. Known for their soaring choruses, epic guitars, and infectious melodies, the GRAMMY-nominated, multi-platinum band will deliver an uplifting, high-energy celebration—capped by the Hollywood Bowl’s iconic fireworks lighting up the Hollywood sky.

The Hollywood Bowl traces its origins to 1919, when the Theatre Arts Alliance purchased a 59-acre site in Bolton Canyon for $47,500. Originally known as “Daisy Dell,” the area was a shaded picnic spot prized for its natural amphitheater shape and strong acoustics. It was especially favored by the founders, including William and H. Ellis Reed, who recognized its potential as an outdoor performance venue. The Hollywood Bowl officially opened on July 11, 1922, beginning modestly with nothing more than a simple wooden platform and a canvas top.
The Hollywood Bowl operates as a public park, and you are welcome to visit during the day when no events are scheduled. The exterior park areas and parking lots are generally open to the public daily, typically from 8:00 AM to 6:00 PM, or until mid-afternoon on concert days. Admission is free, making it a wonderful place to take a walk, enjoy a picnic, or simply experience the setting without the evening crowds.
It is a surprisingly peaceful way to see the Bowl from a different perspective. You can explore the grounds, take photos of the iconic shell, or enjoy a quiet moment in one of Los Angeles’ most historic outdoor spaces. Be sure to check the official Hollywood Bowl website before visiting, as hours may change depending on rehearsals, special events, or performance schedules.
