About Staples Center

Staples Center is located in the South Park district of Downtown Los Angeles. It opened its doors in October 1999 and is part of L.A. Live, a complex that also includes the Los Angeles Convention Center. Staples Center is home to the Los Angeles Lakers and Los Angeles Clippers (NBA), Los Angeles Kings (NHL), and Los Angeles Sparks (WNBA). Furthermore, it’s hosted the Grammy Awards since 2000 (with the exception of two years). Over 250 events take place annually at the Staples Center, bringing in around four-million visitors each year.

Fun fact: Staples Center is the only arena home to two NBA teams. Additionally, it’s one of the two professional sports venues on the continent home to two teams playing within the same league (the other being MetLife Stadium outside of New York, which hosts the NFL’s New York Giants and New York Jets).
