HWC W5 HOLLYWOOD BOWL.jpg

Here are some fun facts about Hollywood Bowl:

  • The Hollywood Bowl is the first amphitheater in California to be certified as an Audubon Society Cooperative Sanctuary.
    • - The Audubon Cooperative Sanctuary Program is an education and certification program that helps organizations and businesses protect our environment while enhancing their bottom line.
  • A piano concert by Gertrude Ross and Anna Ruzena Sprotte in 1920 was the first event ever held at the Hollywood Bowl. The duo used an old barn door as the stage.
  • Frank Sinatra played the Hollywood Bowl in 1946, marking the first time a famous “pop” artist performed on the Bowl stage.
  • A pool once separated performers from the audience and was featured in a water show during intermission. Its 100,000 gallons were drained in 1972 in order to make room for more seats. Today, Pool Circle tickets are among the Bowl’s most expensive seats.
  • The Hollywood Bowl attendance record is 26,410 for French singer Lily Pons in 1936. Today, the Bowl’s capacity is 18,000.
  • The Beatles performed before a soldout audience of 18,700 at the Hollywood Bowl on Aug. 23, 1964.
  • Rehearsals are sometimes open and free to the public (depending on the concert) from 9:30 a.m. to 12:30 p.m. the day of the event.
  • Ella Fitzgerald performed at the Hollywood Bowl 5 times during her lifetime.

Hollywood Spreadsheet

Have you checked out the various tabs on our Hollywood Crop spreadsheet? It is a wealth of information. You can find out what has been distributed, what the hashtags are, photo recommendations and more.

This week we have updated the week 5 tab. If you downloaded the spreadsheet last week, you can copy the items from the week 5 tab and paste to the week 5 tab and the full event tab on your copy of the spreadsheet to make it up to date. If you are downloading the spreadsheet for the first time, it will be completely up to date.

Additional Tabs Added:

We have added an additional tab to the spreadsheet to help you as you start gathering photos to crop with and to give you an idea what type of content is needed for the breakouts. Not all Breakout sessions will be on this tab of the spreadsheet. We will only list Breakouts that require a specific type of photo or content.

CLICK HERE to access the Google Spreadsheet. Go to File> Download> Microsoft Excel (.xlsx) to download a copy. You must have Microsoft Excel in order to open this file. Alternatively, you can copy the document to your own Google Drive account.


Hooray for Blueprints!

We are excited to give you our second installment of Blueprints. We have 10 unique Double Page Spread Blueprints in 3 sizes for a total of 50 Blueprints in this distribution. Click the image below to access the Blueprints which can also be found in the featured offerings of this post.
