The Greek Theatre
Los Angeles, CA · Amphitheater
The Greek Theatre does not make you carry a clear bag, but your bag has to stay within 12 by 6 by 12 inches or it gets checked at the Guest Services Booth. This is an outdoor amphitheater in Griffith Park, and outside food and drinks are not allowed inside. You can bring one factory sealed plastic water bottle per person, and an empty reusable plastic bottle is fine as long as you dump the contents first. Metal bottles are never allowed. Camera and recording rules can shift from show to show, so your event page is the final word for the night. Here is exactly what gets in and what stays in the car.
