The Hi Hat is a intimate, standing-room–style live music venue and bar located at 5043 York Blvd in Los Angeles' Highland Park neighborhood. Known for its close-up concert experiences and rotating lineup of local and touring acts, the space emphasizes a raw, personable atmosphere over plush seating. While the room leans toward a standing audience, there are bar stools and benches available in select areas. Capacity is about 300, making it a comfortable yet energized spot to catch a show without the crowds of larger clubs.

We’ve got you covered with practical details on parking, transit, and nearby lodging and dining to help you plan a smooth evening in Highland Park.
