Here are a couple of exciting ideas to get you mulling:
Imagine the look on your associates faces when they enter The Studios at Paramount. With access to resources used by major movie productions, and themed areas like ‘New York Street’ and ‘The Alley’, your event will be unforgettable.
If you fancy the heart of downtown Los Angeles instead, why not try The Millennium Biltmore Hotel – a great choice for history fans and movie buffs but appealing to all.
