October London set @ The Peacock Theater
Mela S.

A great time was had at the peacock theatre. Had I been better information to purchasing my parking pass it would've cut some of the hassle. Nevertheless I found a closer spot but still walked about .5 miles to venue. It was effortless to go through checkpoints and let me tell you the people came dressed down to the T. Beautiful crowd, pricey drinks but expected and no details on the food because we a dined before the show. Overall nice event space.

I came for the Horoyuki Sawano concert on Nov 14 2025. Parking was super easy and expensive at $40. But we parked right next to the theater which was great. For parking locations, go to the Peacock website and look for their parking. You can choose which structure to park in, add your address and it'll map it out for you. There's parking attendants that'll direct where to park once inside the structure. We got there at 7:30 thinking the concert started at 8 pm...and were greeted by a line that snaked around the building. We stayed in that line for an hour just to get into the theater. The line didnt move till 8 pm. By the time we walked in there was no time to use the bathroom or buy food - the concert started at 8:30 and we missed a couple of songs. Seats are plush and comfortable. There are plenty of bathrooms so lines move relatively fast (after the concert was over). If they could just get people through security faster and earlier getting inside would have been a better experience.

So I been here when it was the original Nokia name then it was Microsoft and now it's peacock but still the theater is still the same despite the name changes It's across the staples center errr crypto and right there at LA Live Been here for comedy events and concerts and it's a nice venue Parking is the same parking for all of LA live and for the crypto so it's not cheap

Second time here, this time catching the Rock & Roll Hall of fame Induction concert. Tonight was a great show with some big names & big surprises. A tribute to Sly Stone opened the show with Stevie Wonder on keyboards & Maxwell on vocals opening up. Questlove on the drums with Thank you for lettin' me be myself. Some great performances by 21 pilots as they performed Seven Nation Army for the White Stripes Induction. Jack White was there, but he didn't perform as Meg White was not present. Feist & Oliva Rodrigo perfected We're Gonba Be Friends and it was beautiful sang each playing acoustic guitar. EnVogue showed up to perform Whaattta Man with Salt N Pepa. Spinderella was there & it was a great set with cool graphic art in the background. Donald Glover inducted OutKast and they brought their horns for SpottieOttieDooaliscious Damn, Damn, Damn. Big Boi came out on stage to perform I like the way you move. Doja Cat was there to sing Miss Jackson & Janelle Monae sang Hey Y'all. It got the crowd moving. Raye made an appearance with Cyndi Lauper and Elton John came on to sing (I'm drawing a blank right now). David Letterman inducted his good friend Warren Levon. Carol Kaye finally got her recognition as the first female bass player. She's played on so many hits for so many bands. Quincy Jones, Beach Boys, Sonny & Cher, Glen Campbell, The Association, Marvin Gaye, Stevie Wonder. The theme from Sharft. I suggest you watch the documentary "The Wrecking Crew." To understand how this woman provided the baseline for so many songs and great hits. Tedeschi Trucks closed out the show honoring Joe Cocker. Teddy Swims came on stage and his voice was perfect. Chris Robinson, Bryan Adams & Cyndi Lauper also provided vocals. Speaking of Cyndi Lauper, she had the best all female band. Gina Shock from the GoGo's was her drummer. Wendy & Lisa's Lisa Coleman was her guitar player. Wow I'm leaving so much out. Show started promptly at 5pm and ended at 9:45 pm. Drinks were 16.00 to $22.00. Candy, fresh fruit, mini pizzas, sandwiches &!Nachos provided at the snack bar. I'm still on that concert high. Until next time see you on Insta or on Yelp

Shinzō wo sasageyo! This theater hosted Hiroyuki Sawano's concert in Nov '25. I got to hear the thrilling OSTs of my favorite animé and witness the enchanting, heart-pounding performances of awesome singers including Mpi. + Majestic stage setup for musical performers and audience layout for thousands of fans. + Organized online seat reservation and ticket purchasing. - Huge, very slow line out the door within minutes of event start, yet the building/staff provide nothing to shield the fans from the rain. - Event was supposed to start at 8pm. I arrived 7:30pm, but didn't arrive at my seat until about 8:15pm. . Thankfully they delayed the first song until 8:30pm. + Many restrooms. + Polite, helpful staff. - $40 parking for only a 3hr event?? Never again. + Glad the parking situation inside the parking structure went smoothly and is safe and well organized though. Thank you Shingeki No Kyojin musical pioneers for visiting LA!

Did you know that the Peacock theater venue was formerly the Nokia theater and before that, the Microsoft theater? It was "re-branded" Peacock in 2023, under the new owner, Comcast. How do we keep up with all of these acquisitions is beyond me. Anyway - - - Tonight, September 14th, the 77th Primetime Emmy Awards will honor the best in American Prime-Time TV dating from June 1, 2024, until May 31, 2025. Chosen by the Academy of Television Arts & Sciences in Downtown Los Angeles, California, with CBS and Paramount+ airing the ceremony. Are you still reading this? haha... Good for YOU Nate Bargatze will host the ceremony. Who is Nate Bargatze? So please stay tuned for the Red Carpet. I post the fashion here annually...it's kinda my thing, you know. I give Many thanks to you, my sweet darlings, and of course, The Academy... - - - - - - - Drum roll please ... Well, see you tomorrow. We're on LA time (PST) Pacifically and I have work to do here. Tah! Sweet dreams! xoxo

Over 1 hr waiting at this point

This was my first time at the Peacock Theatre. Purchasing the tickets online was easy and the seats were marked clearly. For parking, I chose to park a block away since it was $20 vs $40 at the venue. The show was Hiroyuki Sawano, first time in the US and we were so excited. The event details indicated 7pm doors and 8pm show. We got there around 7:20pm. I've been to many shows before and this was the worst line management, I have experienced especially given the weather condition which was pouring rain without shelter. It wasnt the line that surprised me but it was how long the line was and how long it took us to get into the building for a ticketed event that only accounted for 1hr between doors opening and show starting. Because it took us over 1 hour to even get into the building and by the time it was 8pm, there was still so many people outside still. Thankfully they didn't start the show right at 8pm but myself and many others missed a couple performances due to this. I got in closer to 8:30pm. The show itself was wonderful, the staff inside was helpful, but security team that managed it didn't do a good job facilitating it and communicating with us what was happening. They snaked our line several times from having us face the building to not facing the building and it was confusing where it ended. Once we got to security point, they moved so slow it was frustrating given the situation already happening. It became a less safe setting that since the show was going on, people were running to get to their seats after they got in. Due to all this, I did not get a chance to get food or drinks, no intermission which I'm assuming due to the late start with the crowd outside.

MY NEW FAV L.A. LIVE VENUE? The esteemed Peacock Theater known for hosting Hollywood award shows like the Emmys is an amazing location for concerts and screenings. I attended Peacock during Anime Expo and enjoyed anime shows like a Kimetsu No Yaiba live concert, cosplay competitions, and world premieres. The experiences were INCREDIBLE! The indoor lighting of the theater is in-sync with the large screens on-stage which creates a vivid atmosphere. Peacock's seats blow Crypto Arena away. I had tons of leg room (I'm 6'0) and arm space, I never felt packed in, even in the balcony! The cushions of the seats were all intact and well-kept, I was super comfortable. I can't complain about the views here. I sat in a variety of different seats during my visits and there's not a bad seat in the house (except maybe the far back orchestra level?). The balcony which is usually cheaper is super cool and I had a clear view of the stage. I have to give a major shoutout to the security/entry team at Peacock Theater. I had a discrepancy with my QR code for entry to an event and they were super helpful. I explained the situation to them and they helped me work it out. I even had a casual conversation with them, great customer service! I didn't try the food but I spotted popcorn and drinks in the main lobby as you enter the building. The popcorn smelled really good.

The Peacock Theater is one of the largest indoor stages in the United States and is a part of LA Live in Downtown LA. This theater used to be called Nokia Theatre and Microsoft Theater and has a maximum capacity of 7,100 seats. [Parking]: Expensive onsite parking so I did the same old trick - parking at the FIGat7th parking structure for $7 flat rate (with validation - usually I just go to Target) after 4 PM on weekdays and all day Saturday and Sunday. Please note that the FIGat7th parking structure is located approximately 4 blocks away from the theater. [Food vendors]: Worse food options than Crypto Arena. [Venue]: Our party came here for Belly Laughs Comedy and Food Festival and was seated in section LOGE row B. I couldn't see the stage super-well, but the two giant screens certainly helped a lot. Sound quality was alright not too bad. [Conclusion]: I can see okay and I can hear okay with okay food options. This theater did its job alright, but don't expect a special aura or wow factor on the theater itself.

For my first time at this theater, it was okay. It's newer but the main lobby itself is small and can become chaotic. While this was expected, I still enjoyed the Jennie concert and the production was amazing. No complaints and the staff was great!

Peacock!

I thought it was a wonderful venue for a concert. The funnel to get in seemed smooth and getting out of the theatre was a breeze. It was a little old and dingy but the concert more than made up for it. King & Country absolutely crushed it and we had a fabulous time. I would definitely come back to this venue again. PS def get the street LA Dogs once you hit the Main Street on your way out. Sunday night at 11 PM there were ladies out there serving hotdogs on the cold street corner. These are the type of people selling food that we should be supporting.

We came here for the Charlie Wilson concert have had a great time parking was very convenient and within walking distance. The staff made entering the venue easy but we felt comfortable and safe with all their security process. Getting a drink took a while but the line moved fast staff was very friendly, our drinks were well crafted and very tasty. The actual theatre was great and sound system was high quality and top notch. The only negative thing I wound day was that the rows were very close, it didn't allow anyone to pass unless we stood up. Overall we had a great experience Ava enjoyed the concert.

Had a great time at the Peacock Theater for the 2025 NHL draft. It is a modern theater and has a great open and spacious layout, and quite comfortable seating. Nice consessions and bathrooms as well and wide halls to get everywhere easily. I would definitely attend another event here again.

Where's the best parking?

At the parking garage near the convention center. Or have a drink at a hotel & do Valet parking

Can I avoid handling fees by purchasing tickets at the box office instead of online?

Can you park in the street instead of the parking area?

Why?

The live music also made everything so special. The performers were absolutely incredible. It was a little bit crowded in there, which would be fine if people didn't keep crowding standing around where they shouldn't be. Last call for drinks was 1:30am, and I think last call for food was 12:30am. At 1:30 we were told to move away from the games area and go upstairs. Everythung was great until I heard a bartender say that me and my friend were overstaying our welcome ... it was barely 1:45 and we were finishing our drinks. That was rude... After that we were told we still had 5mins. I guess we'll leave early next time. It was just rude to see bartenders point at us and loudly say we weren't welcome ...

They gave me more information on how while they have their own rules and regulations, each event also have their own set of rules and regulations which makes sense. Spencer a General Manager was very concerned about my experience and validated my experience. Spencer was professional, listened to my experience, but mostly gave me a plan of action of what they can do moving forward. I appreciate the management there. Also I was not paid nor did I take a compensation of any type for this update. It was very upsetting that I got kicked out of the venue because I had a medical emergency and was trying to get out of the crowd. I had to go over the front of the barricade as that was the fastest way for me to get out. I was not told where medical was located only that because I went over the barricade I needed to leave, even though I had a vip access. I was 100% sober, I was non combative, I was very polite. I was there with my wife which is why I got vip access so she didn't have to be down in the crowd. Despite telling the security, calmly, that I had an emergency and I was there with my wife I was still escorted out. But not out entirely as he just showed me the door and the security walked away, I could have easily just went back in. This is also something that is concerning because if I were a combative person, for them not to walk me out fully is concerning as a person opposite of my demeanor could have easily gone back in. I think two things should happen Explicitly put signs that state "if you go over a barricade regardless of emergency or medical emergency you will be escorted out." If people are being escorted out, they need to be monitored and ensure they actually get escorted out. If a person says they have a medical emergency the staff should be conscious of that and escort the person to medical not out of the venue. I had a medical emergency last night and was kicked out vs escorted to medical. I'm glad that I'm okay, it's just unsatisfactory the way I was treated when I explicitly said I had an emergency.

This really cool intimate venue has been around for a while as the spot where old and new bands from Band of Skulls, Unwritten Law, NIIS, SCOWL, Joker's Hand and Destroy Boys (right before they got bigger, opening for Blink 182 on tour!) have all played at. The sounds, acoustics and everything are all dynamically set up by their amazing crew of technicians and staff. Custodians are on their toes keeping things clean around here as well. Security around here are very fair. They don't trip about moshers and stage divers as long as they keep things peaceful and fun! Huge plus! Parking can be a toss up, but that's normal and the price around here isn't bad. Lines usually wrap around the building and into the residential area nearby with peoples' houses. It's pretty damn funny, IMO. I was able to see NIIS, Scowl , Destroy Boys and other awesome bands here . Super chill, fun venue!

Parking is street or there is a lot across which I think charges way too much - 30 bucks for the evening in this area is high way robbery. That's what you pay down by the crypto center and there is way more to do down there. But that's not the venues fault of course.

First off, the parking situation is a nightmare so you better be down to uber if you want any prayer of getting there otherwise you'll be circling the block for 30+ minutes trying to find a spot. Second, the beer was way over priced. You're looking at $17 + tip for a decent sized beer, or paying $11 for a cheap can. That's like Coachella pricing, absolute robbery. Third and probably the biggest turn off, was that the second the last band played their last note, the bar immediately closed and started kicking people out. No final call, no grace period to hang out, just gtfo. Zero hospitality. Overall, I liked the space itself, especially the upstairs lounge / balcony area, but the cons just far outweigh the pros with this place. Logistically terrible location and zero hospitality to speak of paired with overly expensive drinks and not particularly friendly staff did not make me want to come back here. There are far better venues in LA.
