Crypto.com Arena

Crypto.com Arena in downtown Los Angeles is the premiere live music venue in Southern California, with its seating capacity of 21,000. That's why the biggest acts on the planet book in here, from Bruce Springsteen, who played the venue's opening show back in 1999, to Taylor Swift, whose 16 sold-out appearances mark the most often a woman has played there. Crypto.com Arena was once called Staples Center, the place people gathered for Michael Jackson's memorial service on July 7, 2009. It is also the home of the major Los Angeles sports teams (Lakers, Clippers, Sparks and Kings), so it isn't always a music venue.
