Still deciding where to celebrate Easter Sunday? Here are some places Angelenos are expected to be en masse:
Easter at the Hollywood Bowl is free to the public and will feature an address by Francis Chan, author of “Crazy Love.†“Whether you are simply curious about faith or a longtime follower of Jesus, Easter at the Bowl will leave you filled with life and an unshakable hope!†organizers said on the event website.
The bowl service hosted by Bel Air Presbyterian Church and the Christian Assembly Church begins at 11 a.m. Sunday. Doors open at 9 a.m. and organizers encourage participants to take public transportation or park at Hollywood & Highland Center or the Ventura lot at 10801 Ventura Boulevard, where a shuttle bus will depart about every 15 minutes.
