What is Hollywood Bowl?
The Hollywood Bowl is a concert venue in the Hollywood Hills neighborhood of Los Angeles, California.
It has been around since 1922 and has brought musical superstars and events to its stage ever since, including showing movies with a live orchestra.
The amphitheater recently announced their summer season filled with over 50 performances from June-September.
Other top performances scheduled for this summer are Cynthia Erivo, Kamasi Washington, Yo-Yo Ma, H.E.R., Viola Davis, and the Bowl’s first Marvel movie with live music to Black Panther.
Who has previously performed at Hollywood Bowl?
Back in 2010, Smokey Robinson celebrated his 50-year career in the music industry with a performance at the Hollywood Bowl.
In 2019, John Legend kicked off the summer's opening night with a performance with the Hollywood Bowl Orchestra. The Jonas Brothers performed later that year.
Diana Ross performed along with Jennifer Hudson along with live music to the movies Pink Panther, Jaws, and Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire.
What COVID-19 precautions does Hollywood Bowl have?
According to the Los Angeles Times, 85 percent of tickets being sold this year will be to people who have gotten the COVID-19 vaccine. The venue will also have vaccine sections dedicated to those who have gotten the jab.
For those who aren't vaccinated, ticket holders must show a negative Covid-19 test within 72 hours of the event. The non-vaccinated sections will also have social distancing requirements.
Masks will also be worn by all patrons of the events.
"From a public health standpoint, we need to be encouraging people to get the vaccine. It’s the safest way for our community to bounce back,” said Chad Smith, the chief executive of the Los Angeles Philharmonic said to the LA Times.
“And from an economic standpoint for the L.A. Phil, it’s a no-brainer. We can welcome three times as many patrons back to the Bowl," he continued.
