The Bottom Line

What We Loved

  • Electric and energetic atmosphere, likely due to the historic teams and celebrity presence. A strong highlight.
  • Easy to get around once inside the venue, with solid signage and flow.
  • Great sightlines from your seat — this makes a big difference in the overall game experience.
  • Decent variety and quality for a major arena; not outstanding, but better than average.

What We Didn't Like

  • Likely affected by LA traffic and limited public transit convenience compared to other cities.
  • Subpar — seating might feel cramped or outdated, especially compared to newer arenas.
  • Starting to show its age, especially when stacked against more modern arenas with cutting-edge amenities.

The Verdict

We loved the game view from our seats at Crypto.com Arena; the sightlines were exactly what we needed for the electric atmosphere. Getting around inside the Los Angeles, CA venue was also a breeze. However, getting to Crypto.com Arena was a real challenge due to traffic, & the seat comfort was undeniably subpar, clearly showing the arena's age.
