Fingerprints is a Long Beach destination, and its current home is in Bixby Knolls rather than the old downtown address. The April 2025 move brought the business to Atlantic Avenue while continuing a shop that began in 1992. Records and CDs remain substantial parts of the selection, joined by tapes, film, books and collectible material. The in-store performance history is still active: the September 2026 calendar lists new events, so this is a present-day reason to check the shop's programme rather than a nostalgic claim. Choose Fingerprints as its own Long Beach outing with room for a broad browse. It does not fit a quick walking add-on to Hollywood or central Los Angeles, however familiar the name may be in citywide recommendations.

Local tips
Check the current event calendar before planning the visit, including any admission or purchase arrangements for an in-store performance. Treat Long Beach as a separate destination in the wider LA itinerary.
