Crypto.com Arena

LA's iconic arena — home of the Lakers, Clippers, and Kings, and host of world-class concerts since 1999 in the heart of Downtown LA.

Known as the Staples Center from its 1999 opening until late 2021, Crypto.com Arena is one of the most famous indoor arenas in the world. Located in the heart of Downtown Los Angeles, it holds up to 20,000 spectators and serves as home to the LA Lakers and LA Clippers (NBA) and the LA Kings (NHL). The arena has hosted the Grammy Awards multiple times, world-tour concerts by virtually every major act, and landmark sporting moments including multiple Lakers championship celebrations. Owned by the Anschutz Entertainment Group and connected to the LA Convention Center, it is well served by Metro rail. An evening here — whether for sport or music — is as close to the beating heart of Los Angeles as it gets.
