The Rocky Horror Picture Show at The Wiltern

When: Sunday, October 25, 2026 (start time not yet published) Where: The Wiltern, 3790 Wilshire Blvd, Los Angeles, CA 90010 Tickets: See the listing linked below for current details

If you are putting together a list of things to do in Los Angeles this Halloween season, The Rocky Horror Picture Show is a safe bet. A listing shows the cult classic at The Wiltern on October 25, 2026, one day before another Rocky Horror night at the same venue. Check both before you buy anything, because they are separate events.

What to expect

Rocky Horror is less a movie screening than a participation sport. Fans have been dressing as Frank-N-Furter, Janet, Brad and Magenta for decades, and shouting back at the screen is part of the tradition. Rice, newspapers and water pistols are common at some venues, but each theater sets its own rules about props. Look for guidance from The Wiltern before you pack anything.

Newcomers are welcome. You do not need to know every line. Most of the room is happy to bring a first-timer along, and the costumes alone make the night worth the trip. If you want to dress up, anything from full corset-and-fishnets to a simple red lip works.

The source listing gives the title, date and venue but not the cast, the ticket price or the doors time. We have not confirmed whether a live shadow cast will perform alongside the film, so treat that as an open question until the venue says otherwise. The start time shown on this page is a placeholder, not a sourced showtime.

Getting there

The Wiltern sits at the corner of Wilshire and Western, a short walk from the Wilshire/Western stop on the Metro D Line. That makes transit the easiest option for a night when many guests will be in costume and in no mood to circle for parking. Rideshare drop-off is straightforward on Wilshire. If you drive, plan to arrive early and expect paid lots nearby.

Plan your night

Because the details are thin, the best move is to open the listing, confirm the showtime and ticket terms, and then decide on dinner. Koreatown is close and has plenty of late-night options. For more upcoming events Los Angeles has on the calendar this season, browse the arts and culture section.

Already have plans on the 25th? The same weekend is full of Halloween programming across the city, and the better LA events this weekend tend to sell out early. If this one is on your list, check back to the source link for updates before you head out.
