Advertising, Affiliate, and Sponsorship Disclosure
Effective date: June 2026 | Last updated: June 2026
The LA City Guide is independently operated, and some parts of this site may generate revenue. This means that some businesses may pay for featured listings or sponsored placements, some articles or pages may include affiliate links, and some content or newsletter placements may be part of paid partnerships.
What this means for you
If you click certain links on this site and then make a purchase, booking, or sign up for a service, we may earn a commission or referral fee at no additional cost to you.
We may also receive payment for: featured directory placement, sponsored guide sections, newsletter sponsorships, paid campaign placements, or planning-related partnerships.
Our editorial approach
- We do not claim official affiliation with LA28 or the IOC.
- We aim to label sponsored or paid placements clearly.
- We aim to keep our recommendations practical and relevant to visitors.
- We may still mention businesses or services that are not sponsors if we believe they are useful to readers.
- A commercial relationship does not guarantee a positive review or endorsement.
