What to Know
It is absolutely worth it to get the parking pass for $20 and designated a driver. Beware, they will not let you stop on Santa Monica Blvd. to wait til 6:45pm til the gates open. Be a pro, time it right, and you wont have to swing around the block.
Items to bring: huge blanket, a rollable mini table, light candles, cheeseboard board and utensils, plastic cups, a roll of paper towels, low chairs (no greater than 21” high), Moroccan pillows (you’re a master if you got these), and warm clothes.
Do not miss out on a few additional things: 1) they always have an epic photobooth that matches the theme of the film, you can do it before or after the show. 2) They have a DJ after the show playing tunes, hang out and enjoy the graveyard as long as you can.
