Los Angeles Tourism Wildfire Update: Resources for Travel Professionals

#Traveltradetogether

The recent wildfires in Los Angeles deeply impacted our community. While the physical damage was mostly contained to areas like the Pacific Palisades, Malibu, Altadena, parts of northern Pasadena, and the Castaic Lake in Northern Los Angeles County, the emotional toll was felt citywide. During this challenging time, the tourism and hospitality industry swiftly responded, securing accommodations for the displaced, providing meals, and creating donation hubs. At the heart of it all are Angelenos—our angels—who remain hopeful for brighter days ahead.
