What will the new new Los Angeles Stadium and Entertainment District mean for Manhattan Beach and the South Bay? An economic forum sponsored by the Manhattan Beach Chamber of Commerce will explore the ramifications.

The forum will take place at the LA Stadium and Entertainment District (LASED) premiere center in Playa Vista (12035 Waterfront Drive) on May 29th from 5:30 to 8:00 p.m. Admission to the event is $45 for chamber members and $65 for general admission.

The LASED is currently under construction in Inglewood. By 2020, the stadium home of the Rams and the Chargers will be complete. It will also play host to Super Bowl LVI (2022), and to the LA 2028 Summer Olympics opening and closing ceremonies.

• A 70,000 seat open air stadium, expandable up to 100,000 seats
• A 6,000-seat performing arts venue
• 780,000 square feet of office space
• 890,000 square feet of retail space
• 300 hotel rooms
• 2,500 modern residences
• Approximately 25 acres of public parks, open space, pedestrian walkways and bicycle paths
• Family and fine dining
• State-of-the-art event, conference and meeting space

Speakers at the forum will include Chris Hibbs, CRO of LA Stadium & Entertainment District and Russ Simons, SVP of Facilities for LASED; and Steve Napolitano, Mayor of Manhattan Beach and former Senior Deputy to the former LA County Supervisor Don Knabe.
