Excellent sports arena!!! We went to see Lakers vs. Clippers , it was a very good game and even tough we were at the upper level, we had a great view of the game.

Top Dining Options: WP24 on the 24th floor of the adjacent Ritz-Carlton tower; Yard House and LA Market are both located within L.A. Live, adjacent to the Staples Center. Read more

Cellucor

The in spot to be at when sports and entertainment is happening in the area! Check out a concert or a Lakers game, but buy your tickets early so you're not left outside!

Edward Hutchinson

Great Venue for almost anything. Love watching sports and going to events and conventions here!

Mat Collis

Really cool venue! Another tick off the list of places I've been lucky enough to have mixed at. Lots of nice restaurants around too

Michael Kalec

Great venue. I enjoy most about this place is the public transportation TO it. Too many venues in LA do not have easy public access. This makes any event or game easy to get to and from.

Avneesh Kohli

Be sure to look up at the rafters and appreciate the legends. 16 Lakers championship banners and 10 player jerseys have been retired. What a legacy

Kristin Smith

between the live concerts , the Kings, Clippers , and the Lakers never a dull moment ... And now that they added the whole LA Live thing it's actually a safe place to go ;)

Alvin D Alcala

Other than great place to watch a game or concert , the plaza around staples has top notch places to eat from Japanese to american to trendy restaurants/bars! Fun entertainment and eateries

Nate Tinner

There are certainly worse places to do some celebrity-spotting... Check out the Nike Vault nextdoor, too! (If they're open.)

Experience

You can now upgrade your seats at all Clippers & Kings home games! Go to http://m.expapp.com/ to find upgrades.

The Ritz-Carlton

At the Staples Center, look for statues of Kareem Abdul Jabbar, Magic Johnson, Wayne Gretzky (although neither played here), Oscar de la Hoya, Jerry West and broadcaster Chick Hearn outside.

Evan Luke Mentzer

Tool - 9/7/2006. That was one of the most epic concerts I've ever had the privilege to attend. Wish i had pics or video to supplement the memories I have of that night.

The Most Interesting Man in the World

This arena reminds me of many exhilarating moments, not the least of which was the time I managed to mend a frayed climbing rope in a pinch with some quickly applied staples.

Kevin McNall

Looking to go on a date? See a great basketball game? have fun with the family? Great place to see a basketball game. A lot of history, Laker tickets will be very expensive but a great atmosphere!

Matthew Sobocan

Always thought it would be larger. A fee road blocks as you travel@around the inside but some very easy ways of purchasing food, snacks and beer

Lilusha Bravo

The service at Hyde suit is really nice and professional! You will enjoy with the game with testy cocktails as well ???? ???? ???? ????

John Mann

Take Metro to Pico Station to get here. Buy the Premier Tickets to get waiter service at your seats. If you need help deciding which Seats to purchase for your next Lakers/Clippers game, check out Read more

Kieran Jack

My favourite basketball stadium in the US, the stadiums are a lot different to the ones in Australia it's amazing how the stands are so steep

West Virginia University

Check out the statue of basketball icon Jerry West. He has left his mark as a Laker , an Olympian, a West Virginia University Mountaineer , and as the silhouette of the NBA logo. Pretty impressive.

Social News Network

The Staples Center is a must see! Check out downtown L.A. and all of its surroundings. By the way they have great nachos !

After 20 years, it’s still the premiere state-of-the-art facility.

James Bustamante

Great place for a concert ! The traffic and crowds are usually expected, but the

Edward Forte

It pays to be a VIP member (AMEX preferred, Lexus, delta, San Manuel, etc).Great seats, shorter entrance line , and a private floor to buy food and souvenirs

Abi Panicker

If you have an amex, buy the cheapest ticket and go to the amex desk to get a wrist band to allow you access to suite level and the amex centurion lounge !

People

The Lakers may reign supreme—but we can't help but notice some other guys seated courtside. Look for David Beckham, Leo DiCaprio and Zac Efron cheering on, and just try to keep your eye on the ball.

Chris

For some cheep seats this time but it depends on what angle you are at because honestly it was a great view and it was enjoyable.

Brian Ruelas

Awesome!! They got bars and restaurants for the pre-game. And I think you can invest a little bucks to be in a better seat.

Kyle Berns

Be sure to stop by StubHub. You get to create your own commemorative ticket!

LADOT Bike Program

Why pay for parking ? Ride your bike to any of the events going on at Staples Center and L.A. Live and park your bike at any of the city sidewalk racks or at the L.A. Live Parking Garage for free!

Aldous Noah

Lakers , Clippers & Kings games ! And concerts year-round! ????????

Stefanie

Lovely venue no matter the event . Lots of entrance options so don't wait in a line !

Where Los Angeles Magazine

With 20K seats, Staples Center is home to performances by the Lady Gaga and Justin Beiber-types of the music industry, many shows complete with pyrotechnics, dancers and/or earth-shaking volume. Read more

John Cassillo

Views are better for hockey than basketball , but it’s a fun place to catch a game. Beer is pretty affordable for L.A., as is food.

JD Malone

Great venue but parking is hell. Take public transportation if you can to avoid the headache.

James Bates

Awesome setting for a ballgame but felt like mainly tourists where I was sat in the club seats

Brian Burtt

Parking is fast and easy at the convention center off of LA Live Drive just north of Pico . In and out quick, before and after events .

ESPN

Staples Center has hosted NBA Championships, Stanley Cup Finals as well as concerts & boxing. But when Arizona & Ohio St. tip off, it will be the first NCAA Tournament game in this building's history.

Luke

Awesome atmosphere and crowd! Nice venue and lots of good places to get a quick snack for the game!

Luigi Miranda

A must go when you are in Los Angeles and watch the Lakers . Amazing

Ryan Palmer

Still a world class space. Easy navigation once inside and tons of food and drink options.

StarSightings

Celebrity sightings are plentiful and part of the excitement here. Look near the front rows and snap photos to share with friends. Who have you seen? Read More link has a list of recent sightings. Read more

Heather

Home of my fabulous LA Kings, hockey games are the best here. Fans are legit and we always support our boys (^_^)

Anthony Requia

Great venue and surrounding area at LA Live. Lot of places to grab a bite before heading to Staples.

HBO

Curb Your Enthusiasm happened here. Jeff and Larry are annoyed when they learn that the head of NBC gave them nosebleed seats, especially when they see him sitting courtside.

Nikki Foster

Great games, concerts , and events here!

Tommy L.

i've only been here for hockey , but since it's not a hockey-specific arena, the upper levels are REAAAALLY far from the ice. Sit in lower level or in the center seats so you can see what's happening

Lustina Girl

Get a suite for sure, they are so much better than a regular seat. TRUST!

Rosa Miranda

Like how the arena changes for so many events ????????
