Events in Los Angeles: what to know
The Christmas Day game is a downtown night: Crypto.com Arena sits at Figueroa and 11th, next to LA Live, with Pico station on the A and E lines a short walk south. A South Park or Financial District hotel is walking distance.
The Olympics are a different geography. Exposition Park and Inglewood are around eight miles from each other, with further sites in Long Beach and the Valley, so a Metro rail line is a better Games anchor than any single venue. The E Line reaches Exposition Park and the K Line serves Inglewood.
