The Wiltern

I parked at the M Grill parking lot off of Ingraham and paid $25. My sister parked at the Ralph's parking lot and paid $45 and said they were full anyway. Walk from M Grill is. Straight shot to the theater and about a 5 minute walk. Finally made it to The Wiltern and it was for a comedy show which means I'll need to go back for a concert to get the full effect. We were here to see Jeff Arcuri and I had no complaints. The sound was excellent and we were in the top section above everyone. The comedian interacted with people down in front all the way to the nose bleed seats and we were able to hear everything from everyone just fine. I liked being up top to see and hear everything and enjoyed the show. Out of all the historic theaters/venues in Los Angeles, this one wasn't my favorite. I feel like other venues have a more elaborate art deco interior with elaborate murals on them. This one looks great on the outside and the inside it's just ok.

The Wiltern is cool!! We have seen 5+ shows at the Wiltern and so far, it's been a great experience each time!! Most of the time we've had general admission but a few times we chose seats in the mezzanine. The Wiltern has a beautiful lobby & they do sell food & drinks at a "theatre pricing." What I like about the Wiltern is there is a lot of seating and hangout areas around the lobby before you get into the theatre. This is cool because you can hangout and have a cocktail/snack before you go watch the experience you came for. The staff is always kind at the Wiltern. They always know what time each band starts & what time they end. The merch is on a good spot /not too overly saturated in the hallway. The only thing I will say is the sound could be improved at the Wiltern. I won't stop going to shows at the Wiltern but I would say compared to places like the Fonda, Palladium & the El Rey the sound could be a bit better. The lighting is great & the atmosphere of the theatre is cool because there are different levels making every spot the stand a good spot. Always a great time at this theater for good music! Excited for what 2025 brings!!

Location 3: Corner of Wilshire and Western (hence the name Wiltern), in busy K-Town area of Los Angeles. Very limited street parking and plenty of paid parking lots. The theater does not have their own self-parking or valet. Plenty of cafes, bars and restaurant around and some awesome Korean food!Venue 3: Historic, nostalgic Art Deco venue built in 1931. Well-kept. Medium-sized venue for up to four thousand people depending on seating, on three levels; Floor, Loge and Mezzanine. Main floor is convertible to standing room only for General Admission (GA) events. Floor seats are literally portable chairs ziplocked together. They have great legroom but very little elbow room. The Loge and Mezzanine feature proper upholstered theater-style seats and are fairly comfortable. Given the size of the venue almost all Loge and Mezzanine seats are good seats.Service 2: Staff were friendly and polite but the line to go through security and get in wraps around the block and it can take a very long time to get in.Food & Drinks N/A: I did not have any food or drinks there. There are plenty of nice bars and restaurants nearby :)The last word 3: Nice historic venue to enjoy some good entertainment at. I visit often and will visit again.

Gorgeous music venue in Ktown. Metro train station is immediately across the street if you don't want to deal with parking. Multiple parking options within a block but $40+ for most. Plenty of food and bar venues within a 5 minute walk so I would skip the mediocre overpriced options the venue offers. That said it's small enough that there isn't a bad view in the house. I sat first row of the "lodge" which is basically lower balcony. View was great but if you're going to any show where people will be dancing be prepared the balcony does some serious bouncing!

Visited here to watch the Nutcracker. The theater itself is so beautiful with the 20s decor. I ended up ordering a Prickly Pear Margarita and some RedVines at the bar. The drink itself was mixed very nicely and had a nice balance of sweet and sour. The show was very good and we all had a great time here.

The venue is an architectural marvel. It's so gorgeous inside! The ushers were helpful directing us toward our seats. The line was not chaotic at all. If anything, it felt like we were lined up for church!At the start of the performance, a lady with the most beautiful head of hair sat in front of me, but her head obscured my view of the entire stage. It wasn't her fault at all but I needed to get the full experience of seeing the performers. After all, I paid full price.So I went to Guest Services to ask if they could help me. I showed them a photo of what little I could see from my seat and they immediately went to work to solve my issue. When I say they went above and beyond, I mean it. They felt so bad for me they upgraded our seats to an area where I could see everything even if a 7 foot dude sat in front of me. Shoutout to Leo for bending over backwards for me and my husband. We truly appreciate you! And fervently hope you win the lottery someday!The rest of my experience was phenomenal. If you run your business in a way that makes your employees happy, they'll take care of your customers. I found out for myself how true that is because I felt cared for by the Wiltern staff. They are the most awesome aspect of this venue. Can't wait to return.

The 1931 Wiltern Theatre is beloved by Angelenos, thanks to its distinctive Art Deco style and stunning terra cotta facade. The inside is even more stunning than its outside! It's easily my favorite venue for concerts in LA.The acoustics are consistently excellent, making every show sound fantastic, no matter where you're standing or sitting. The staff is professional and well-trained, ensuring the whole experience runs smoothly from entry to exit. One of my favorite perks is the numerous bars located on all floors--and during some shows, they even have waiting staff taking orders in the pit and standing-room areas, delivering drinks straight to you. You can also get doubles on liquor for just $6 more.Another bonus is their unlimited fresh popcorn for $8, which is surprisingly not too greasy. While it might feel a little strange munching on popcorn during a rock concert, it's delicious and hard to resist.

We had the pleasure of attending the Jeff Arcuri show at The Wiltern, a fantastic venue, but it was the incredible staff at guest services that truly made the experience memorable. The day before the show, we called to request an ASL interpreter, and while we were told we'd receive a callback, we never heard from them. When we arrived for the show, we went to guest services to inquire, and they seemed unaware of our request. Thankfully, Rebecca stepped in and went above and beyond to ensure we had an interpreter. She immediately took action, got on the phone, and made sure everything was arranged for us in time for the main act. Thanks to her dedication, we had an unforgettable experience. Huge thanks to Rebecca from guest services--you're a real lifesaver!

Came here on October 5th for Snow Tha Products show , we bought GA floor tickets and when we arrived we were told by security that we could not pass due to capacity. I was really disappointed because we wanted to get close, so just a reminder that if you'd like to be close to stage be super early ! Made the best out of it for what is was!

Like all the other historic theatres in LA, it's worth checking out. Art deco grandiosity, high ceilings, with some modern fluorescent updates. Pretty awesome. We were here for Sheng Wang's comedy tour. Hilarious show by the way. Parked by the Ralphs which was 40 buckaroos.
