LASEC is the official organization for the City of Los Angeles to seek, host, promote and retain major sporting and entertainment events that positively impact the local economy. These events attract visitors to the city, give them a reason to stay longer and return more frequently and reinforce Los Angeles as an event destination for national and international visitors. Created in 1995, LASEC is a private, non-profit organization and an affiliate of LA INC, The Convention & Visitors Bureau.
