Watch & Listen

Over the last 20 years, many musicians have called Walt Disney Concert Hall home. Above are members of the Los Angeles Philharmonic who have been with the orchestra since 2003 or earlier.

Getting to the Concert Hall & Parking

Location

Located just minutes from City Hall in downtown Los Angeles, Walt Disney Concert Hall shares Grand Avenue with many other arts and cultural venues

Get directions: 111 South Grand Ave, Los Angeles, CA 90012

Parking

Parking is available directly beneath Walt Disney Concert Hall. Enter on Second Street or Lower Grand Avenue. Regular parking costs $10 beginning at 4:30pm for evening concerts, two hours before weekday matinees, and all day on weekends.

Take the Metro – NEW STOP!

Skip the traffic and take advantage of the new Grand Avenue Arts/Bunker Hill station (Blue, Expo, and Silver Lines) across the street or the Civic Center/Grand Park Metro station (Red and Purple Lines), which is a short one-block walk to the Hall. The Metro offers direct service from as far away as Santa Monica, Long Beach, Azusa, or East LA.

When to arrive

It’s a good idea to arrive 60 minutes before your concert’s start time in order to park and find your seat (plus, browse the store!) before your concert begins. If you’re lucky, we might even have a pre-concert event before your show. Check your concert’s performance page for details. Latecomers will be seated during the first appropriate pause in the program, at the discretion of management.

Seating Options

Every seat at Walt Disney Concert Hall offers a clear view and ideal acoustics a 360° layout, but here are a few tips on choosing the best seat for you:

For a piano performance: Look for a seat in the left of Front Orchestra, Orchestra East, or Terrace East (to see the piano keys or the pianist’s hands). If you’d rather see the pianist’s face, Orchestra West and Terrace West are great options.

For a view of the conductor: The Orchestra View seats (also known as bench seats that are located above and behind the stage) will give you a good view of the maestro’s face. Some folks even say that sitting here feels like you’re in the orchestra. Bench seats are available for select concerts.

For easy access to the Walt Disney Concert Hall Blue Ribbon Garden: Pick any seat on the Garden Level, especially if you’re joining us for pre-concert drinks.

Where should I sit?

Make a night of it!

There’s plenty of fun stuff to do before and after concerts. Make it a night to remember with our pre- and post-concert events.

Feel like a pre-concert drink? Join us for Drinks in the Garden on Friday nights (and see the spectacular Frank Gehry-designed rose fountain while you’re at it). Come early to any of our Chamber concerts and enjoy a complimentary glass of wine.

Want a super-informative primer to the evening’s program? Upbeat Live offers pre-concert lectures from experts sharing their insight into the music.

Visit for the 20th Anniversary of the Walt Disney Concert Hall

Designed by architect Frank Gehry, Walt Disney Concert Hall opened two decades ago, guided by Gehry’s goal to be a “living room for the city.” Welcoming Angelenos and visitors from all over the world, the Hall is a destination for art and music lovers. This season involves concerts that pay homage to Gehry's vision, and it’s the perfect opportunity to explore this Los Angeles icon with a tour, by walking through our rooftop garden, or taking in a performance whether its Gustavo Dudamel leading the LA Phil, one of our family events, or a concert with a wide-range of visiting artists who perform in all genres.
