The Walt Disney Concert Hall at 111 South Grand Avenue in Downtown of Los Angeles, California, is the fourth hall of the Los Angeles Music Center and was designed by Frank Gehry.

Bounded by Hope Street, Grand Avenue, and 1st and 2nd Streets, it seats 2,265 people and serves, among other purposes, as the home of the Los Angeles Philharmonic orchestra and the Los Angeles Master Chorale.

Drinks & Nightlife
When it comes to names in the craft beer world that people freak out over, Mikkeller is one of the big boys. The bar/brewery/sometimes a coffee shop (originally from Copenhagen, but with select locations around the world) is considered one of the best places to drink craft beer in the world, and they have a new location inside an old discount tire store in DTLA. The German drinking hall-type space is actually massive with a long bar, huge communal tables, and a food menu that’s remarkably solid. It’s also walking distance to Staples, making it the ideal pre-game drink spot. Get the burger.

Mezcalero proves that the neighborhood bar is a concept that can actually work downtown. The (you guessed it) mezcal-heavy bar right on Broadway doesn’t have a theme or shtick, it’s just a great place to pick up an after-work drink or a quick nightcap. The place isn’t large, but there’s a great front patio, a daily happy hour (from 3-7pm), and a kitchen that’s open till midnight during the week and 1:30am on the weekends. You’re going to want the tacos.

Fair warning - come to Birds & Bees after 10pm on a weekend, and be prepared to wait. Come to Birds & Bees on a weeknight (or get your friends out of the house before 9pm) and you’ll find one of our favorite cocktail bars to open downtown in a while. The place is in the basement of some old building on Broadway and feels like a large, swanky bomb shelter on the inside. And despite the long lines at times, the crowd is cool and everybody’s there to drink as many of those cocktails as possible. Make the Smuggler’s Eye Opener your first order of business.

The fact that gay bars are opening again on a regular basis in DTLA is a thrilling one. The fact that we got one as downright excellent as Precinct is the cherry on top. In terms of the space itself, Precinct isn’t exactly a jaw-dropper, but its large open floor plan works well for the massive crowds that are flocking to this place. And everyone is lining up for some of the best nightly entertainment downtown. Whether it’s Latin or Madonna night, or the bi-monthly bear celebration, Precinct is the craziest party in the neighborhood right now.
