LHS Open on Cal Football Game Days
Visiting LHS during Cal Football home games is a great way to enjoy the Hall to the fullest as we are generally less crowded. Visit the Cal Athletics football schedule for details on dates and times. Do note that on game days, Centennial Drive normally closes BELOW LHS at 10:30 a.m. and reopens at approximately 4:30 pm. Please use the Grizzly Peak Boulevard route on those days.
