Downtown LA · About a mile from Crypto.com Arena & LA Live

Your after-party near Crypto.com Arena & LA Live

An underground private event venue in DTLA's Historic Core, a short ride from the arena and LA Live.

The Catwalk Club is at 698 Harlem Pl in the Historic Core of Downtown Los Angeles, about 1.1 miles from Crypto.com Arena and about 1 mile from LA Live, roughly a 7-minute ride. The Convention Center is about 1.4 miles away. That makes the room an easy move for groups who want their own space before or after a game, show or convention day downtown.

Instead of competing for tables at a packed bar, book the whole club: the former boiler room of the 1920s Bank of America headquarters, about 5,500 sq ft, multi-level, with a centerpiece catwalk and a DJ deck that hangs over the dance floor. Private events are by appointment only, open 7 days, first come, first served.

Timing

Planning around a game or show

Event nights downtown mean traffic and busy streets, so share your expected arrival time and the event you're coming from in your inquiry. For guest parking, our exclusive valet with a private lot is recommended; public lots and meters are nearby. Rideshare works with the street address. See Getting Here for details.

Because dates go first come, first served, popular nights can go early. Check the availability calendar and request your date. Age requirements vary by night and event (18+ or 21+); check each event listing. 21+ with valid ID to drink alcohol.
