2. HISTORY
The Belasco Theater – a relic of the 1920’s – made its grand debut in March
2011 after laying dormant for more than 20 years. Thanks to an extensive 3
year restoration, the venue retains most of its original architecture – meshed
with impressive sound and lighting capabilities. Located blocks away from
the L.A. Live complex in the heart of downtown Los Angeles, this venerable
landmark is the city’s premiere multi-purpose event and entertainment
complex.
