MUSIC FROM THE MOVIES Returns To The Hollywood Bowl In September

By Melissa Thompson | August 27, 2021

After a very long hiatus, the Hollywood Bowl is once again open and the slate of upcoming shows on the calendar is mighty impressive. From the LA Philharmonic, to jazz and rock concerts, and of course, the ever-iconic Hollywood Bowl fireworks!

Among the fan favorites on the list, Tinseltown is back for several movie-themed shows, including the Maestro himself, John Williams. Always a thrill to see in-person, Williams takes the podium to conduct some of his best loved movie scores including Star Wars, E.T., Jurassic Park and more.

This season also brings to screen, Marvel’s Black Panther in Concert  – the first-ever presentation of any Marvel movie shown with a live orchestra. Another popular event that is also back on the schedule, Harry Potter and the Half Blood Prince in Concert.

Bring the family out for a magnificent night under the stars and an unforgettable experience. See you at the Bowl!

Marvel Studio’s Black Panther in Concert

September 10^th, 11^th and 12^th

In 2018, Marvel Studios’ Black Panther quickly became a global sensation and cultural phenomenon, showing a new dimension of what super hero films could be. Rolling Stone raved, “The film lights up the screen with a full-throttle blast of action and fun. That’s to be expected. But what sneaks up and floors you is the film’s racial conscience and profound, astonishing beauty.” Now, for the first time anywhere, you can relive the excitement of T’Challa becoming king and battling Killmonger all while the LA Phil performs Ludwig Göransson’s Oscar®-winning score live to picture.
