SoFi Stadium is set to host the Super Bowl LXI in 2027, the Olympic and Paralympic Opening Ceremonies for the 2028 Olympic and Paralympic Games (LA28), along with being converted into the largest Olympic swimming venue in history.

Adjacent to the stadium and under the same sweeping translucent roof canopy sits the 2.5-acre open-air American Airlines Plaza and the 6,000-seat YouTube Theater. As an intimate, state-of-the-art venue, YouTube Theater hosts a diverse line-up of chart-topping superstars, iconic comedy acts, awards shows, esports competitions, community gatherings, and corporate conferences. Named the “Top West Coast Club or Theater” by Billboard, YouTube Theater is a must-play destination.
