About Academy LA

Academy LA is one of Hollywood's most versatile nightlife destinations. The three-floor complex includes a main room with a state-of-the-art LED ceiling system, a rooftop terrace, and an intimate basement bar. The programming spans EDM, house, hip-hop, and live music, making Academy one of the few venues in LA that can credibly host both a major EDM headliner and an underground techno night. The venue's production values are consistently high, and its central Hollywood location makes it accessible from across the city.

History

Opened in 2013 on Hollywood Boulevard, Academy was designed to fill a gap in LA's nightlife landscape — a large-capacity venue with genuine production values and diverse programming. The venue has hosted events during Coachella weekend, EDC week, and other major festival periods, establishing itself as a key destination for music tourists visiting Los Angeles.
