Steps Away From the L.A. Experience
At L.A. LIVE, entertainment and unique experiences are just steps away from the convention center and conference hotels. It’s an urban core with three live entertainment venues and more than 20 restaurants. Whether you want to dance, dine, tour a museum or take in an NBA game, there’s something for everyone to enjoy.
ACFAS attendees can eat, drink and play at places like Crypto.com Arena or Microsoft Theater, home of the EMMYS, ESPYS and many other events.
Check out the list below for a taste of six unique activities L.A. LIVE has to offer during the ACFAS 2023 Scientific Conference.
