The Hollywood Bowl Summer Season Schedule

The Hollywood Bowl Summer Season schedule has been released - and it's diverse and full of some of the music industry's stellar performers.

The annual Jazz Festival will take place on June 17-18, and already boasts a lineup that includes Kamasi Washington, Leon Bridges, West Coast Get Down, St. Paul, and others.

Of course, the usual suspects will still take that stage including great classical, jazz, and world music, including Maestro of the Movies with John Williams (July 7-9), and multiple KCRW Festival dates (with some artists still TBA). Dudamel the L.A. Philharmonic will also take the stage.

Single-event tickets have not gone on sale yet.

• On sale right now are a handful of concerts (Louis Tomlinson, Jill Scott, King Gizzard, and the Lizard Wizard) plus new subscriptions and renewals, along with group sales.
• “Create Your Own” packages open on March 14.
• Single ticket sales start May 2.
