If you're coming from the San Fernando Valley, go to the train station in NoHo and take 2 stops to Hollywood and Highland. The walk is about 10-15 minutes which is not terrible and the train ride is less than 10min. No parking hassles. No traffic. And $1.75 each way.

Park in remote locations and take the bus in. We parked in Pasadena and took the bus. After the concert buses were waiting and it was a quick exit. It was much quicker than walking to your car and possibly waiting for the stacked parking to clear out before you get your car.

The weather was hot but cooled down quickly.
If you dislike cigarette smoke, stay away from the P3 section. Facing the stage, it is the far left section. L3 is less smoky.
Be prepared for the new procedures with the metal detectors. It means you will wait a bit longer to get in. Also, the same with will call. The lines are long and slow.
Stacked parking is a pain! Park and Ride is the way to go!
Read the bowl rules before you go!
Park at Hollywood and Highland structure. It is a good walk, but you save money and it is less of a hassle leaving
The BEST advice I can give is to look into taking the Hollywood Bowl shuttle bus from one of their park & ride locations. We boarded at the Lakewood Mall and enjoyed a stress-free 50 minute ride to the Bowl. If you have ever tried to fight getting in & out of the parking lots for an event there, you know what a time-consuming hassle it can be!
Always with the Hollywood Bowl, try to rideshare it. Getting in and out of the area is always a pain so plan ahead.
Umbrellas are not allowed
Take a shuttle. They are fast and convenient.
Park on Hollywood Blvd and walk. Much easier.
The weather was very nice. I wore jacket and a hat which was perfect. We did not need the blanket I brought..

Park and Ride was sold out at all venues for the Morrison concert. I called the Bowl box office to see whether we could take a chance and go stand-by. Park and Ride ticket sales ended at 10am the day before the concert.
