The Beverly Hilton

The The Beverly Hilton Experience

The Beverly Hilton exists at the intersection of Hollywood glamour and Beverly Hills luxury. This is a venue where history is made — it has hosted the Golden Globe Awards since 1961, and the walls carry the weight of decades of Hollywood royalty. The International Ballroom is a masterpiece of classic event design: soaring ceilings, dramatic chandeliers, a stage built for spectacle, and a floor plan that can transform from intimate seated dinner to full production gala in hours. The poolside venue — The Circa 55 terrace — offers a completely different atmosphere: open-air, lush, and cinematic, with the famous Beverly Hilton pool as a backdrop. For corporate events and brand activations, the hotel's infrastructure, professionalism, and name recognition add a layer of credibility that few venues can match. Guests at Beverly Hilton events arrive expecting excellence, and the hotel delivers it at every touchpoint from arrival to departure.

Events at The Beverly Hilton

The Beverly Hilton's most famous recurring event is the Golden Globes, but the hotel hosts hundreds of significant gatherings every year. Corporate galas and awards ceremonies are a major category — companies choose The Beverly Hilton when they want their event to carry the weight of the address. Weddings at The Beverly Hilton tend to be large-scale, high-production affairs with significant guest lists and substantial vendor budgets. Brand activations and product launches leverage the hotel's prestige and media presence. Charity fundraisers, political events, and entertainment industry gatherings round out a calendar that reflects Beverly Hills's role as the epicenter of LA's power and glamour.

Why a Photo Booth Works at The Beverly Hilton

The Beverly Hilton's prestige and scale make premium photo booth experiences not just appropriate but expected. The International Ballroom's dramatic chandeliers, warm gold lighting, and architectural elegance serve as a natural backdrop for the Glam B&W Booth — the high-contrast portraits echo the venue's Hollywood glamour and produce images that belong in a magazine. For poolside and terrace events, the Open Air Booth captures the Beverly Hills skyline and the famous pool in the background, creating location-specific keepsakes that guests treasure. Corporate brand activations at The Beverly Hilton benefit enormously from premium booth options — the 360 Video Booth produces cinematic content with the ballroom's grandeur visible in every frame, creating shareable assets that extend the event's reach far beyond the venue. At a venue of this caliber, the photo booth is not an add-on; it is part of the experience architecture.

About The Beverly Hilton

The Beverly Hilton opened in 1955, designed by architect Welton Becket and developed by Merv Griffin, who purchased the hotel in 1987. The hotel was built as a monument to the postwar California dream — a luxury destination that combined the sophistication of European grand hotels with the glamour and informality of Los Angeles. The Golden Globes moved to The Beverly Hilton in 1961 and have been held there ever since, cementing the hotel's place in the cultural history of Hollywood. Over seven decades, the hotel has hosted presidents, royalty, studio heads, and stars — and its name has become synonymous with Beverly Hills prestige. Major renovations over the years have kept the property current while preserving its iconic architecture and the glamorous character that makes it one of the most recognizable hotel facades in America.

Setup & Logistics

The Beverly Hilton's event team manages vendor logistics with precision. All equipment must be freestanding and self-contained, compliant with the hotel's venue policies. We coordinate load-in through the designated service entrance and work within the hotel's vendor timeline. For International Ballroom events, we typically position the booth along a side wall or in a designated activation area to preserve the dance floor and stage sightlines. Power access is available throughout the ballroom and event spaces. We arrive 90–120 minutes before guest arrival to complete setup, lighting tests, and template confirmation. Our team is familiar with the professional standards required at luxury hotel venues and brings the same level of presentation.
