Know Before You Go
Why it matters
El Rey Theatre is a 1936 art deco cinema turned 770-capacity concert room, giving Los Angeles tours a visually distinctive stop along the Miracle Mile. The shallow floor keeps artists close even when the room is full.
Getting there
The venue is on Wilshire Boulevard near La Brea. Metro bus routes serve Wilshire, while the nearest rail stations require a connection; reserve parking or use rideshare.
Bag policy
Bags must not exceed 14 × 14 inches. The venue applies this size limit to backpacks, large bags, suitcases and luggage.
Local tips
The floor is mostly standing and the lobby is small, so entry can back up. Wilshire traffic is slow at rush hour, making an early departure more useful than a shorter route.
