House of Blues Anaheim

House of Blues Anaheim is inside Anaheim GardenWalk, the outdoor mall across Disney Way from the Disneyland hotels. Its official address is Suite 337 in that complex. It used to sit inside Downtown Disney, and plenty of people still head there first by mistake, so plug in the GardenWalk address before you leave.

The main hall is a club-sized room, small enough that the back of the floor still feels close to the band. The calendar leans on rock, metal and K-pop, plus tribute nights, and smaller acts play the Parish room. The restaurant and bar run Thursday through Saturday from 5 to 10 PM, and hours shift on show nights.

Park in the GardenWalk garage. You can drive in from Disney Way or Katella Avenue, and the venue connects to every level, so you won't be wandering the mall to find the door. Foundation Room members get nine hours of free parking with a validated ticket. Everyone else pays the garage rate, which the venue sends you to the garage operator to check. The box office opens an hour before doors on show days only.

It's cashless inside, so plan on a card or your phone. No outside food or drinks get in, and that includes a sealed water bottle. Bags go through a search, and the age limit is set per show, so check yours before you buy for a younger friend.
