WEST HOLLYWOOD, CA — The city is advising residents and motorists to prepare for street closures and increased traffic Nov. 13-15 during Live On Sunset, a free concert headlined by Sheryl Crow.
Performances are scheduled 4-11 p.m. Saturday, on the Sunset Strip, rain or shine, officials said. Registration has reached capacity, and new registrations are accepted for a waitlist only — joining the waitlist does not guarantee admission.
Crow will be joined by Local Natives, Empress Of, Grace Bowers, Doug Locke and Mia Moretti. The event, produced by JJLA, will also feature outdoor activities and food and beverage offerings.
Sunset Boulevard will close between San Vicente Boulevard/Clark Avenue and Doheny Drive from noon Friday through noon Sunday, according to the city. Side streets one block north and south of that stretch will also close.
Additional closures will take effect from noon Saturday through 1 a.m. Sunday on Sunset between San Vicente/Clark and Larrabee Street, and on San Vicente between Harratt Street and Sunset.
No vehicle access will be permitted within the closures. City officials urged motorists to allow extra travel time, use alternate routes and follow posted parking restrictions.
Traffic delays are also expected during setup Friday and breakdown Sunday.
A free event shuttle will operate Saturday from 4 p.m. to midnight, with pickup at the West Hollywood Library and City Council Chambers, 625 N. San Vicente Blvd. The shuttle will drop passengers near the event entrance at Sunset and San Vicente boulevards. Service will be available on a first-come, first-served basis, officials said.
Parking near the shuttle pickup is available at West Hollywood Park's five-story parking structure and Pacific Design Center, 8687 Melrose Ave. Other public parking options requiring fees include the lot at 8590 Sunset Blvd., Sunset Plaza lots at 8591-8720 Sunset Blvd. and Kings Road Garage, 8383 Santa Monica Blvd.
Rideshare passengers should arrange pickup and drop-off outside the street closures, city officials advised. Transit riders should check for bus detours before traveling.
Gates for the concert will open at 4 p.m. at Sunset and San Vicente boulevards. Admission is limited to one person per ticket, and guests must present a scannable ticket on a phone or a printed ticket with a visible barcode. Officials said reentry is not guaranteed.
All guests must undergo security screening, and bags are subject to search. Permitted bags include clear bags no larger than 12 by 6 by 12 inches, small clutches up to 4.5 by 6.5 inches, and fanny packs or crossbody bags up to 12 by 6 by 4 inches, according to event organizers.
