Our Story

The two best options when flying into Los Angeles are: Los Angeles International Airport (LAX)LAX typically has the best rates and most flight options. It is further from our venue, but it is easy to rent a car, catch an Uber, or take the Flyaway shuttle bus. Hollywood Burbank Airport (BUR)Burbank Airport is smaller, but easier to travel in and out of. The flights can be more expensive, but for the convenience, it can't be beat. From here, you can rent a car, or hail an Uber or Taxi.
