Pack a picnic. Go early though to snag a table ( 2 hrs prior to show)
Check parking options as they have changed!
Park at Ford its only $12
FYI-- there is a free shuttle pick up on Cahuenga Blvd near Theater West.
We took Uber there. They have a designated area for ride shares to drop off and pickup. Made it very easy.
Arrive early to enjoy your picnic. There are tables around the venue available on first come.
There's a lot more uphill walking than I'd remembered at the Ford - but not as much as at the Bowl!
have someone drop you off or Uber it..

The Ford Amphitheater is a great intimate venue with general seating. There isn't a bad seat in the house, but if you are particular about where you sit you should arrive early.

The Free Shuttle service from the Universal City Metro station was extremely efficient and pleasant.

I wore shorts and tennis shoes. I took a jacket but never used it. A beautiful night in the Hollywood hills. .

Dining is flexible. The food there is pricey. I usually pack food, but eating at your seat (seats, no benches) can be a little awkward. There are tables scattered about and concrete you can sit on, as well, but get there a little early for that.

Parking is stacked, $5. Give yourself some time. There's a small lot in front of the box office, and another one a little further away, but not too bad. Some parts are a little hilly and the walk right in front of the box office gets very steep.

Arrive early if you want to score a table. Pack a small cooler with wine, beer, soft drinks and light fare, you will save yourself a ton of money.

This is my favorite outdoor venue in LA. Scenic and intimate. It's the perfect place to enjoy a film or performance.
