The Los Angeles Memorial Coliseum, a National and California Historic Landmark, is a memorial to all who served in the U.S. Armed Forces during World War I. It has stood the test of time in Los Angeles as a longstanding landmark and local treasure for generations of locals and visitors to Los Angeles, serving as a venue for countless legendary events.
For nearly a century (The Coliseum’s centennial will be in 2023), it has been the site of two Summer Olympics (Xth Olympiad in 1932, XXIIIrd Olympiad in 1984 -- and soon, a third (XXXIVth Olympiad in 2028).
It has been home to college football’s USC Trojans since 1923 as well as made a name in professional sports history as the home of the Los Angeles Rams from 1946-1979 and 2016-2019, the Raiders from 1982-1994, the Chargers in 1960 and the Los Angeles Dodgers from 1958-1960. There have been three NFL Championships, two Super Bowls and even the 1959 World Series held on-site.
Outside of the world of sports, the venue has been a platform for dozens of VIP guests -- including appearances of U.S. Presidents, international dignitaries and musicians from across the globe.
