One of the most iconic buildings in downtown, this projections they were doing to the beginning of LAphil season were so incredible and beautiful. Take advantage of the weekly free tours

It was an educational festival for children with special needs that included performances artwork face painting and much more.

This place is real awesome. Architectural beauty. The surroundings are nice as well. Theres a lot of places to eat and lounge around. You can sit and drink your coffee, relax. You can go nsode and check the structure out. You get full views of Downtown L.A. It's an ice palce to start your sightseeing if you're in town as well.

You cannot go to downtown LA without visiting this site

Beautiful architecture by Frank Gehry with acoustics to match. Never pass the opportunity to drive past it!

Purchase seat behind and for 20 only. See them so closely. If this is your first time, suggest you try this.

Beautiful and unique a true treasure of the los Angeles area!

Enjoyed wandering around LA while waiting on Amtrak.

I have never been inside but just looking at this Modern design structure is amazing.

Looks very nice and interesting! Behind the hall there is also a terrace where you can sit comfortably!

From unusual angles to unexpected materials this hall never fails to amaze. There are tours to be had but they not necessarily include the concert hall itself, it all depends on the performance schedule and rehearsals. The tour can also include all of the nearby performance spaces. Very much reccomend for the architecture buff.

Just looked at it from the outside. A spectacular piece of architecture

Remember to take part in the guided tour to see places that ordinary travelers cannot enter.

Gustavo Dudamel should have a religion based off of him

Beautiful!
The place itself is a work of art. No matter what angle you look at, it will always look that different. Wonderful!

It was one of my favorite places to go. Finally I visited it . As an architect I was wondering if I could get there and
I did it

Angelique Kidjo

After the intermission, more than 100 musicians including two harps, piano, and pipe organ set on the stage, two caterpillar like huge black speakers hanging from the ceiling, captioning projectors glowing, it will be something big happening.

The lights turned on the stage, the woman in African traditional dress from the head to the toe coming out, conductor John Adams holding a baton, I had goosebumps all over and understood why this music needed more than 100 musicians as she started to sing. Her voice was not loud, or high pitched, but it's enough to captivate people's mind. Her name is Angelique Kidjo. Her voice was AMAZING and unique that I have never heard before. Composer Philip Glass would be lucky as he met her, "one of the greatest artists in international music today"(LA Phil performances magazine). I was jealous why God gave such an amazing voice only to her, not me?

And we were honored that we met living legends, the greatest Americans composers John Adams and Philip Glass.

Drizzling at night in LA downtown and I felt fatigue from work, but once again my decision to come to LAPhil was the one of the best choice of this month. Amazing.

It has a very cool design. It's told that it has a perfect acoustic but I haven't visited inside.

The architecture of this building is amazing. We did the tour with the detour application and learned a lot. You really need to spend some time and walk around the building to discover hidden gems.

What a sight! Some really inspired architecture right there.

The Video tour by Jeannette Cardiff and George Bures Miller was Aowsom!

Beautiful place. We went on a tour and the tour guide was wonderful. We learned so much and got to see things you might not see if just attending a concert.

It is a very beautiful place with spectacular views from its terraces ..

Beautiful auditorium, there are guided tours or headphones available to the public free of charge. A visit inside is recommended.

Designed by Frank Gehry and opened in 2003, the Concert Hall is an architectural masterpiece in the heart of Downtown Los Angeles. The modern design is imaginative and beautiful to look at. On the roof, a garden was created. Named after Walt Disney, whose family has sponsored more than $ 50 million to build. In any case, every L.A. visitor should be on the to-do list, and admission is free.

What an amazing place. Went to see one of my students perform at the Walt Disney Concert Hall. I was super impressed with the acoustics and the seating was great. Loved it.

Beautiful building with easy parking. A gem in the heart of downtown

Truly an experience. The theater is beautiful and the sound is first-rate. If you have an opportunity to go, you won't be sorry you went.

It is a relaxing environment listening to Lang Lang and "101 Pianists"

I highly recommend the self-guided tour around one of the area's most extraordinary buildings. Even if there are no concerts on the schedule, the tour provides an insight into the design, structure and day-to-day running of this amazing landmark.

What a piece of art by Frank Gehry! The use of space inside is very interesting too.

That was amazing! How whole those metal constructions connects to each other?

Walked by this magnificent building. Too late to take a tour. Next visit!

Amazing architecture. Building looks awesome from outside. Picture shooting place. Unfortunately it is closed for tour inside.

One of the highlights of downtown LA. visiting the garden is a must do

We received tickets for Christmas to see Herbie Hancock which we had been looking forward to. We were very excited to see the concert hall and to hear the incredible acoustics. It is unfortunate to present a negative comment but I must. The building is fabulous, our seats Terrace level 4 above and immediate to the side of the performers gave us an incredible view of the musicians but with all of the amazing sound equipment the hall contains only one speaker pointed toward us. The sound for our seats and I'm sure for hundreds of others was absolutely amateurish and an incredible disappointment. We heard a lot of percussion and a lot of muffled bass. We came for the experience but we came especially for the music. We got a lot of noise. When the floor audience erupted in applause for a solo performance including Mr Hancock's we felt as if we had missed out on everything but the drummer.

Wonderful room, interesting, comfortable, great acoustics. . Everything is thought out

This building remains one of Franck Gehry's finest achievements. The angles and curves of this center are reminiscent of Gaudi's architecture. The water lily in the back garden is also a nod to the Spanish architect. It is however a pity that we cannot have access to the main room which is also a marvel of Gehry's architecture. Enjoy it!

It was alright, we went at a time where we couldn't see inside the halls

Didn t have the chance to go inside and I m not even sure if we can go inside but nice architecture.

Great place to see a concert. Hard to get through downtown

Fantastic architecture, a jewel not to be missed if you are visiting L.A among other things near other important buildings.
Not to be missed

I saw the Los Angeles Children's Chorus, and it was fantastic. The Oregon is wonderful and there isn't a bad seat in the house

Incredible building. It is worth taking a free docent-led tour to learn more about the history and quirks of the building.

Very nice , especially when you do not want to be seen with a secret date. Lol

Must be on your bucket list. Spectacular, every time.

You can't go wrong with a trip to this iconic concert hall. And, contrary to popular belief, tickets to many shows are not very expensive.

Beautiful building with a concert hall of all wood which allows for a fabulous sound experience. If you sit in the side balcony, you overlook the orchestra, offering a closer look to the musicians below. There is also a cafe-style cafeteria that offers decent food before the performance as well as convenient parking beneath the hall. If you arrive early, you could arrange to see the Broad Museum next door or the LA Moca. All in all, a memorable experience in downtown Los Angeles

Incredible, upscale place and an excellent spot for some of the world's greatest musicians.

Amazing facility! We saw the LA Phil perform here for a kid's show, and everyone had a great time. We sat behind the orchestra. We had a great view, but I don't think any of the seats would have been bad. The kids really enjoyed seeing the musicians play, and truly enjoyed the music. Heads up, there is construction going on around the theater right now, so consult their web sight for information on how to approach and where to park. In spite of that, this was a great day with the family.

Nice concert hall. Has a Pokemon gym and several pokestops.
