The annual Airbnb Open is an opportunity for Airbnb’s community to gather in one place and make meaningful connections with each other and learn tips for successful hosting, as well as hearing the latest news from their respective companies with important product updates.
 
"As the first ever global festival of hosting, the Open will bring together hosts and guests from across the globe in one of the most creative places in the world, Los Angeles. The city will be an open canvas for them to explore for three days of education, connection and celebration,” he added.
 
This year’s Airbnb Open will highlight the thriving downtown area of LA, taking place across four historic theatres and involving many local restaurants, cafes and other small businesses. Attendees will have the chance to engage with locals and a diverse range of communities, immersing themselves in the energy of the city and experiencing what it would be like to live there.
