About Heisler Park Amphitheater: Heisler Park Amphitheater is located in Heisler Park on Cliff Drive at Jasmine Street in Laguna Beach.

In addition to the 16′ whale, there are several other public works of art on display at Heisler Park. Before the performances, while the sun is still out, use the Heisler Park Beach Stairway to make your way to the sand and enjoy splashing in the surf or searching for sea life in the tide pools.
What To Bring: Bring a low back lawn chair or a blanket to spread out in the grass to enjoy the concert. Pack your own picnic dinner to enjoy or pick something up at one of the local establishments.
