Tickets will go on sale first to members of the Art Deco Society of Los Angeles on Saturday, February 17 at 9:00 AM.
Join us for the return of the Art Deco Society's highly anticipated "Art Deco Hollywood" walking tour! Discover the birthplace of the film industry and experience the glamour and modernity that Hollywood Boulevard has to offer.
As a microcosm of Los Angeles' post-World War I architectural boom, Hollywood Boulevard is an Art Deco lover's dream. The tour features the Mountain States Life Building/Yucca Tower, our latest Historical Cultural Monument nomination. Explore famous Hollywood landmarks such as the Kress and Max Factor buildings, as well as hidden gems that may have gone unnoticed. You'll witness palaces of commerce as well as small business owners' dreams come to life. We guarantee that you'll be surprised by what we have to show you.
Our tour will take you through the neighborhood block by block to see what it was, what it is, and what it will be. By the end of the tour, you'll be able to identify the unique features of Art Deco and Streamline Moderne architecture.
The tour will begin outside the iconic Pantages Theater and will take you on a journey through Hollywood Boulevard, exploring stunning exteriors along the way. The tour will conclude around Hollywood & Highland. Please wear comfortable walking shoes and bring sunscreen, a hat, and a water bottle as we will be walking approximately 1.5 miles outdoors. We recommend parking in a lot or garage between Vine Street and Highland Avenue, as meters are generally limited to one to two hours. Metro also serves the neighborhood, with stations at both Hollywood & Vine and Hollywood & Highland. We look forward to you joining us on this exciting adventure!
