Hollywood Park Studios, a major urban mixed-use development by Los Angeles Rams owner and Chairman E. Stanley Kroenke, will develop a state-of-the-art movie studio and production facility that will house the International Broadcast Center for the 2028 Olympic and Paralympic Games in LA.
The Center will host media from around the world with rights to distribute coverage of the Games with offices, studios, control rooms and other services when the historic event comes to Los Angeles.
Following the Games, Hollywood Park Studios will be available for use for studio production and operations. Construction is set to begin later this month on the 300-acre destination in Inglewood anchored by SoFi Stadium, YouTube Theater and the NFL Media office building, along with retail stores, restaurants and a hotel.
SoFi Stadium will be converted into the largest Olympic Swimming venue in history during the Games and will host the Opening Ceremony together with the LA Memorial Coliseum, as well as the Opening Ceremony for LA’s first ever Paralympic Games.
