The Hollywood Bowl, LA’s beloved amphitheater, will reopen in early July. Today’s reopening announcement is likely the result of vaccination numbers going up, while daily infection rates and deaths continue to drop throughout Los Angeles County.
The Los Angeles Times reports the 14 week concert season could have the potential for full capacity if trends continue downward and follow California Gov. Gavin Newsom’s plan to fully open the state by June 15. That’s 17,500 seats for the Hollywood Bowl, among other performance venues that could open with full capacity by then.
For the first time in its almost 100 year history, the entire 2020 season was canceled last May due to the coronavirus pandemic. As with most live music venues throughout the Southland, the Bowl hasn’t seen a live act on its historic stage in almost one year.
The Bowl will host four free concerts for essential workers before June 15. That includes groups like first responders, healthcare workers, including grocery store staff, custodians and delivery drivers. They’ll limit the capacity to 4,000 people to make sure social distancing is maintained.
