Travel Note
Distance vs Actual Travel Time
LA traffic is notorious. Whether you've only heard about it, or you know from first hand experience, planning ahead is essential. Please do not estimate travel time by distance, as a five mile journey could take 30-60+ minutes at certain times, in certain places. We recommend using Google or Apple Maps to estimate trip duration instead. We are working on securing shuttles for our guests, but with the venue's location and strict rules (being in a residential area/zone), it's tricky. Our hope and plan is that we will be able to offer transportation to any and all guests who need it, and we are in the process of finalizing things now. That said, shuttles have *not* been confirmed yet, so please check back in the next few weeks for updated information and/or more specific information. If you are not sure you will need / want to use group transportation, there is parking (albeit limited) at the venue. Please don't hesitate to reach out should you have any questions, concerns, etc. Thank you for your understanding!
Flight
John Wayne Airport (SNA)
This is our preferred airport, as it is 10 minutes from our home. Although it can be more expensive and/or require a connecting flight, the ease of flying in and out of SNA is worth it every time.
Flight
Los Angeles International Airport (LAX)
LAX has its quirks, but it's always there for us. Many (if not most) airlines have direct flights in and out of LAX. We recommend renting a car for the weekend, but especially if you are coming in from here. If you are planning to take a taxi or rideshare, please don't hesitate to reach out to us for tips, guidance, etc.
