The Hollywood Bowl is building a new facility called the Terri and Jerry Kohl Artists Pavilion, with construction beginning on October 10, 2025. The 7,500-square-foot, single-story building, designed by RIOS, will serve as a multipurpose space for artists and patrons before and after performances, and also host year-round events and VIP receptions. It is expected to be completed by June 2026, in time for the next concert season.
- Artist support: The pavilion will provide a comfortable gathering space for artists and crew members, complete with a full kitchen for serving meals.
- Event hosting: It will host pre- and post-performance gatherings, VIP receptions, and other off-season events to increase the venue’s year-round use.
- Infrastructure: The project includes a bridge connecting the pavilion to the Stage Right Terrace, which will allow for secure movement between artist support areas without going through public spaces. It also features a permanent roof over the Stage Right Terrace to protect against firework debris and support equipment.
- Design: The building is designed by the architecture collective RIOS and includes interior design by Frederick Fisher and Partners.
- Funding: The project is made possible by lead donors Terri and Jerry Kohl, with major support from Andrew Hewitt and Bill Silva of Live Nation Hewitt Silva.
Wondering how this will affect the West Gate queuing for concerts. Hopefully for the better. Those lines get long and are close to the cars entering the valet parking drop off.
