Concerts Tonight in Los Angeles

Things to do in Los Angeles today

The fastest way to see what is on tonight is to scroll the event grid above, which auto-sorts by start time. Same-day tickets in Los Angeles are easier to come by than most cities because the venue density is so high — Largo, the Troubadour, the Echo, the Echoplex, the El Rey, and the Wiltern all release held seats and standing-room walkups on the night of the show outside of fully sold headliners.

Comedy clubs along Sunset and Melrose typically have day-of seats at the box office for the late shows. Late-night LA clusters in a few corridors.

Sunset Strip in West Hollywood runs club nights until 2 am at the bigger rooms, with the Comedy Store late shows often ending past midnight. The Hollywood Walk of Fame along Hollywood Boulevard between La Brea and Vine fills with foot traffic until midnight on weekends — bars and a few late kitchens stay open along the strip and on Cahuenga to the west.

Downtown LA's Arts District has late kitchens and bars open past midnight on weekends, particularly around Mateo Street and 3rd. If you want a calmer night, midweek Mondays and Tuesdays are quieter across the city — that is when you can usually walk into Largo, catch a try-out night at the Comedy Store's Belly Room, or grab dinner on the Sunset Strip without a wait.

Thursday through Saturday is when LA hits full volume. Plan transit and parking accordingly.
