The Hollywood Bowl is turning two of its four parking lots into rideshare and shuttle hubs in the hopes of clearing up some congestion in the neighborhood.Daniel Song, who’s been serving as interim CEO of the Los Angeles Philharmonic, which manages the venue, told LAist this should improve the experience for event guests, and for people just trying to get home or around the Hollywood Bowl.
“It has always been our goal, as a steward of this incredible historic venue, to make it as easily accessible to everyone that lives in the area in Southern California,” Song said.There will still be about 1,400 pre-paid parking spots available at the venue, but Song said it’s more important than ever to plan ahead. Thursday’s show, for example, is almost already sold out of spots.
There’s also park and ride locations across L.A. County, and tickets are available online until 10 a.m. the day before each event., to make sure the effects are positive. And if it doesn’t work out the way they hope, he said they’ll continue to make adjustments. “It's a running joke, people don't love the parking, people don't love the traffic, but people love the bowl,” he said.The more than 100-year-old venue butts up against Highland Avenue and the 101 Freeway, which doesn’t leave much room for the massive parking lots seen at similar venues in Southern California.
