Full parking guide
We drove down from northern California for a weekend getaway and caught a Sunday afternoon concert at the hall. The building itself is absolutely stunning - the way the light hits those stainless steel panels creates this incredible shimmer that changes throughout the day. The acoustics inside were phenomenal, and everyone around us seemed genuinely invested in the performance. Only minor complaint is that parking was a bit of a hassle and prices were steep, but it's worth dealing with for an experience like this.
Gorgeous place amazing music. Always an incredible high production with astonishing performances. Recommend at least once in your life, no matter your age or background.
If you are doing Jury Duty this is a great place to park for free! Only show your juror badge, the attendant scans it when you arrive and when you leave. Plenty of underground parking. Thanks WDC Hall for helping out.
