Earthquake Strikes Los Angeles Following 2025 Oscars
Oscars 2025: Kim Kardashian, Sofía Vergara & More Turn Heads at Vanity Fair After-Party
The 2025 Oscars wasn’t the only major event in Los Angeles March 2.
Just a few hours after the ceremony ended and the after-parties were kicking into high gear, a 3.9-magnitude earthquake hit greater Los Angeles. The earthquake struck around 10:13 p.m. local time, extending about 1.3 miles across North Hollywood, Universal City and Studio City, according to a report from the United States Geological Survey.
However, the Los Angeles Fire Department shared on X following the event that they were “not entering earthquake mode,” and no injuries or damages were reported to local authorities immediately.
The 2025 Oscars hosted by Conan O’Brien in the Dolby Theatre in Los Angeles was located 10 miles from where the earthquake was felt. Of course, the earthquake comes nearly two months after the area was rocked by devastating wildfires.
And in his opening monologue, Conan took a moment to acknowledge the L.A. Fires and those both in front of and behind the camera who have “been through a devastating ordeal.”
