AFI Los Angeles Campus

AFI Hours and Parking
The AFI Campus is open from 8:30 a.m. to 11:00 p.m. daily. Parking is free but limited, especially during prime usage times. We recommend you use the lot behind the Louis B. Mayer Library Building.

Directions to AFI
The AFI Campus is located in the hills overlooking Los Angeles, at 2021 N. Western Avenue. From the Golden State Freeway (I-5): Exit Los Feliz Boulevard West. Drive approximately two miles on Los Feliz past Griffith Park until Los Feliz curves sharply to the left before becoming Western Avenue. The AFI entrance is the first driveway on the right. If you pass Franklin Avenue, you have gone too far.

The Campus is easily accessible from the Los Angeles International Airport (LAX) and Burbank Airport, as well as from all Valley locations and Orange County.

Note: AFI does not provide housing accommodations.
