Parties in Los Angeles are a year-round affair where every season is rooftop season and the beach is just as lovely in winter as it is in summer. As the year draws to a close, we’re dressing for the weather we want (at least sweaters make sense in your freezing office) and planning our company holiday parties. Whether you work in the soaring high rises of downtown or a trendy warehouse in Silver Lake, your company deserves a holiday party venue unique to your team’s vibe. From private estates overlooking the ocean in Malibu to chic lounges in Chinatown to old-world theaters in Hollywood, there’s something for every team in every pocket of LA.
