With a cash haul from elite party donors expected to reach into the millions, the Los Angeles event could help ease concerns among Democrats about Biden's reelection chances.
As of the last fundraising reporting deadline at the end of September, Biden and his party reported $91 million cash on hand.
During the 2020 Democratic primary campaign, Smith and Costos hosted Biden's first major fundraiser in the area, during a Los Angeles swing that raised over $1 million.
At the time, Katzenberg was involved in planning events for another Democratic candidate, Pete Buttigieg, who is now Biden's transportation secretary.
Katzenberg's former business partners at DreamWorks, Geffen and Spielberg, will be at the Smith and Costos event.
