Great stadium to watch the footy Plenty of parking , easy access through the gates and once inside great choice of food and drinks with plenty of places selling both Bathrooms are kept clean and there was plenty of security here tonight although it's subtle and with the great mood of the crowd hardly needed which was great The home town support is a lot of fun ( see the video ) they somehow manage to keep up the singing cheering and enthusiasm going for the whole game .. makes it for an amazing atmosphere Hoping for a LAFC win read more

Great experience seeing LAFC at BMO as my son's first MLS game, however the food choices were limited compared to other large stadium venues. read more

A MUST DO! 4 & 1/2 STARS! Banc of California Stadium is now called BMO Stadium. It is a partially covered open air outdoor stadium that houses both concerts & sporting events. The on-site parking sells out pretty quickly. I recommend you buy your parking online beforehand rather than take a chance & just show up. Otherwise you might be looking for someone's lawn to park on for whatever the going rate is for that day. LOL! The Stadium is new & was built in 2018. It's in the heart of LA, close to the freeways & not that far from downtown LA. Guns N Roses's opening act was Dirty Honey. Guns N' Roses puts on a great show. Even if you're not a fan of Guns N Roses' music, you got to check out their concert at least once in your life. They put on a great live show combined with over the top video displays on the big screen. It's Awesome! It used to be, you had to have Mega Bucks & be really Rich to have the Good Life, not anymore. The Game has changed. You've been Upgraded. Now You Can Live Like a King on a Limited Budget! read more

Parking, parking. Parking sucks balls! Other than that this stadium is dope. Went to a show on a Friday night. Watched System of a Down show. Great sound. What a great facility. Concessions everywhere even have beer in vending machines. Section 211 is not bad for a show I imagine for a soccer match it's great wherever you sit. Plan ahead be prepared for the traffic and parking situation. It's funny when the band says they live 15 mins away but took them 2 hours to get to the venue. Lol! Have a good time. read more

This is hard to get to for a concert. Saw Queen and Adam Lambert here. The concert was phenomenal but the signage is super ambiguous and if you're gonna take a ride share be prepared to spend the big bucks. There isn't good accessible parking and the lines move slow so get there earlier than you'd think. read more

Saw Rufus du Sol perform here on Sunday and it was my first time at this stadium. I was in the WEST 1 open GA seating and the view was pretty good for those seats of the stage, although it was a side view, but still close enough if you're able to get in the front rows. Check in was easy, with a showing of vaccination or a negative test to gain entry. Security getting into the concert was smooth and getting out was relatively painless and easy. They did a good job of moving everyone along! Acoustics were great. I definitely recommend this venue for seeing a show! read more

Good venue, went to see Queen on Saturday. Great seats, drinks were a little weak and of course overpriced. Ushers were non existent to assist people. read more

I had one of the worst experiences there. My 11 daughter was recently diagnosed with type 1 diabetes. When I came through security they would not allow me to bring in my backpack with her medicine. I preface, everything she needed was in a small black pouch which was in a larger pouch, which was used to hold the extra stuff that did not fit in the smaller pouch. All of this was in the backpack. Which I allowed them to thoroughly check. They insisted that I couldn't have a pouch in a pouch and that the medication needed to in one bag. So I put the supplies into the larger pouch and tried to put it back in the backpack. That was not allowed either. I tried explaining that it had to go into the backpack because the pouch did not have handles and I needed to carry it and not lose it. That wasn't good enough either. I told them I have doctor's notes. They didn't care. Then, what I am assuming was a supervisor, came over and refused my request as well. They said I could either take it in the pouch, or I could dump it into the back pack. I said there is a lot of moving pieces like needles and such. Again, they said no. So, I had no choice but to dump all of her medication and supplies into the backpack. Of course as I am trying to it, I'm dropping needles and everything else. It was embarrassing and humiliating, the fact that I had to have an argument with these people in front of an entire crowd was shameful. I risked being videotaped and mocked on the internet. Uncool. Not to mention what it did to my daughter. As said before, she is newly diagnosed. She had been in the PICU for over a week. Her numbers were so high she almost went into a diabetic coma. That has really messed with emotions. So much so she had to immediately go into therapy. She was so upset about this incident, because she blamed herself for what happened. Which is something she has been trying to work through. It's terrible to be a little girl and to feel like everything that has happened is her fault. That should never be a worry of hers. She should never have been subjected to being discriminated for her illness. It actually is against the law to intercede with someone having access to their medication, in any circumstance. I was completely bewildered to also see other people with multiple bags that were not see through there. Riddle me that. I know there is nothing that can be done about it now, other than contact my lawyer. But, I don't think I want to go through that either. However, I know in the future there will be other parents and children who will be in the same situation that I found myself in. For their sake I hope that the people who are in charge of this venue, read this review and make changes that are conducive to patrons with legitimate medical needs. Their handling of us was shameful. People were making comments saying that was not right to do to us. And they were right. I know this was long but it needed to be said. Oh, and I should also mention that the food was horrible and the parking was like $65. All in all this was not a good night to be had and I don't think I will ever step foot in this establishment again. So for my final note, Do better, please and thank you. read more

Literally the worst venue I've ever been to for a concert. Had VIP for one day and it took over 1.5 hours to check in, VIP did not have proper pre show early merch experience, just one dinky tent outside that was not properly differentiated from the merch tent for non VIP and then they let us into the arena at 7 with everyone else to fight for merch. Other people did not get in until after 9:20pm and the show had already been pushed back A FULL HOUR from 7:30 to 8:30pm due to BMO's complete scheduling incompetence and the group had to start the show at 9:15pm instead because by 8:30pm, the staff had not let everyone into the stadium yet. I genuinely hope I never have to come back here. The lines in were so disorganized too -- huge crowds of people vs single file lines, barely any security. I was scared there would be a stampede. I hate this venue so bad. read more

Came here for the Twice concert both days 5/14 and 5/15. Parking was easy to find but really expensive ($50) getting out of parking was a nightmare. No traffic control what so ever. The stadium was nice. The lines outside was pretty organized signs telling you where you need to go and a recording played over the intercom. Food was good, I had asada fries ($16) reasonably priced imo. The worst part is security once the show started. I paid good money for front row seats and in an isle (nobody in my left). When Twice got on stage everyone got up and rushed the barricades. The isle were completely full of people who didn't belong there and people were trying to standing in front of me! I wasn't having any of that. I wasn't going to let anyone block my view. There was little to no effort in enforcing any seating policy. Security gets an F for day one. I was afraid to experience the same thing for day two. There were a few people in my row who was 'walking around' waiting for the concert to start so they'll be able to rush the barricades. Again I got isle an isle seat, when the show started the guys ran up to move closer to the stage but security did so much better day two I was able to enjoy the concert much more. Security did what they can to keep the aisle clear and made everyone return to their seats and told everyone was who's STANDING on their seats to GET DOWN! They did much better than day 1. However, Security completely collapsed near the end of the concert though but at least it was at the end and I was able to enjoy much more than day 1. Overall good stadium, good food great seating arrangements. Bad parking and bad security. read more

When I first saw that Iron Maiden was coming back to LA I was really excited! Then I saw the venue name and was like "huh"? You know, hard to know what and where these days with changing corporate sponsors. I saw that it was located near USC and the Colosseum and the next thought was where to park? It turned out that I was able to get dropped off in front and retrieved afterwards in a surprisingly smooth maneuver by my gf. The staff were all very nice and my Yelp buddy, Craig Y. and I entered the massive stadium and secured some snacks from a gourmet offering and complimentary earplugs (to preserve the ears during the opening bands' sets) from Guest Services. Finding the seats proved easy and then we waited and waited for Maiden to take the stage. Sound: It was very loud! Heavy metal requires that of course but the opening bands tend to be shrill and raw forms of loud, hence the earplugs. For Maiden though they came out and it was beautiful! Sitting under the scoreboard in the 300 sections probably isn't the best to be honest. You can see but it's far away and the sound does a slap back affect above off the enclosed screen. In the future I'll try to secure seats on the flanks, first level or lower in the second. When it was time to leave it was remarkably easy, they opened up more gates and while I cut out during the encore I avoided the masses. It actually sounded better when I reached the cutaway section of the stadium along S. Figuoera! I'm sure anyone outside heard the whole show in higher fidelity than I did way back there! Overall, a fairly good experience. read more

The performance was great but the staff here were not on the same page in terms of communication. It was so chaotic, as one would say to line up a certain direction. Only to have another staff member come and change the line another direction causing people to cut the line who had been waiting longer. Barricades that would go in zigzags for no reason. The chairs are awful to sit on for long periods of time. The food options were okay between vegan options, but extremely salty and pricey read more

We flew in from Atlanta for the two twice encore concerts that occurred on 5/14 and 5/15. Compared to the State Farm arena back in feb, this stadium processed people at an expedited rate. It took us about 2 minutes from the front of the gate to go in. We stayed at the USC hotel for two nights and then later went to Malibu Inn for the rest of our LA stay. Area I heard is quite dangerous on nights without sport games or concert, but if there is a huge crowd, it's decently safe to walk. Do not venture south of the stadium and you should be fine. USC campus police do patrol this area, there are bathroom spread throughout the stadium and concession stands for popcorn and alcohol. Make sure you bring a 12x6x12 clear bag. No pepper sprays read more

I attended the Burna Boy concert yesterday at the BMO stadium. The stadium for the most part was new and clean. Getting tickets and prepaid parking was easy. Highly recommend prepaid parking since the prices are higher if you go in person. We arrived early and there was a Bar/Restaurant on the property but it was not open. Entry was another headache. The website did say you could bring a clutch and gave the measurements - my clutch was very slightly oversized (less than 1/8 of an inch and they would not let me bring it in - I will note Dodger Stadium also has the same policy and I was able to bring the same bag in - there was an option to purchase a clear bag (at a vendor approved by them) or store my bag for a fee. It made no sense to me that i could bring the same clutch but in a plastic bag. I opted to put my purse in the car and have my son hold my ID and credit card. It would have been helpful if they had someone check the size of the bags toward the end of the line vs having people wait 30 mins in line to be turned away. It would be more efficient for everyone. The venue has some interesting food choices including Trejos Tacos and Wolfies but unfortunately most of the food vendors were closed and the vegetarian options were severely limited. The concert itself was brilliant - Burna Boy is definitely worth going to see. He is an epic performer. The bracelets that the venue gave added to the mood and - I do wish there was a way to recycle the bracelets. The restrooms were a nightmare -toward the end of the evening many of the stalls in the ladies room had no paper at all. Overall, I have gained experience if there is an artist that I would like to see that is performing there. read more

Great place to see a concert. Though when picking my seat on line the section and seat was not as good as the map shows. So my seat did not have a very good view of the stage. But over all a cool place to see a show or sporting event. Decent food and drink choices. Parking is crazy$, and they over sold the lot we pre paid for, so we got directed to another lot. But it was fine. Prices for drinks were not crazy $, except-able. Staff and people working there were great. Nice open top stadium. Great sound system Great display screens. I would go here again for sure. read more

This stadium is totally state of the art! Food was great and not a bad seat in the house! There is beer on every corner so no lines are too long. The biggest downfall is parking. It's $50 and the lines were outrageous. We parked in a smaller lot and paid $30 with no wait! read more

We saw Maroon Five at this beautiful stadium and had Field Club Level seats which at first were very difficult to get too as you have to enter the Grand lobby entrance (we didn't) to take elevator/stairs to the seats. But once you get their you have a nice private bar/food/bathrooms to utilize plus not to mention very comfortable seats. To start off, I have been to the BANC for many LAFC soccer games so I am aware of the parking situation around the stadium. I bought a parking pass for $28 to park about a mile away at the USC Shrine Auditorium parking garage. Although a little mile walk, very safe and easy in and easy out to the 110 Freeway to go home. Ensure you know about parking before you attend any event here!! Maroon Five kicked a$$ and any seat bit on the floor section are good to see a concert. We saw the $2 chairs (Made in China) people sat in on the floor and I am sure their backs and bum hurt afterwards. Security and medical personnel was plentiful throughout the BANC. Being in COVID, we were asked to see a negative test or vax card in which we showed, but many people were refused entry causing lots of drama. read more

This is the worst venue to attend a concert, I will definitely not come back. They booked a concert and an event at USC- took close to 2 hours to get here, one hour just to get in parking lot. The staff is rude, long waits at the bar even on the floor, you could only go up one way so had to walk around. Small purse- must be clear bag they try to make money so you have to check in bag in locker even if it's small. Then we got stuck inside the parking lot another hour. The most disorganized venue. Love Kane brown but no way I would attend anything else here again. 250 tickets, 165 parking- what a joke! read more

Where do I even start... Attended the Gun's N' Roses concert at the Banc of California Stadium last night, and while the concert was AMAZING, the stadium is DISGUSTING! How is it possible that both of the bathrooms I went in had ZERO toilet paper?! If it was at the end of the show, ok, maybe. We arrived at 6:30, and the bathroom near the entrance gate we arrived in was out of toilet paper, and then later on, the bathroom near our seats was out too. GROSS! At least there was soap and paper towels... The lines for all of the concession stands were extremely long, and understaffed. For a city that is trying to get back to normalcy after the pandemic, my experience with this venue was a complete disappointment. You'd think they would at least have bathroom attendants or custodial staff to keep the place clean. The OC Fair was 100 times cleaner than Banc of California Stadium. Despite the gross state of the stadium, Gun's N' Roses killed it last night, and we had a blast! read more

Amazing space! I can't believe it took so long to get here but we attended the season opener for LAFC and had a blast! We stayed in the all you can eat section that included a tour of the stadium and the field. What an awesome experience! We parked in the VIP section which was worth the price considering we walked right to the stadium from our parking space - it was so easy. The crowd was lively, the food was decent (can't go wrong with hot dogs and all the beer you could want, not to mention it was local), and the field was in great shape. We had a blast and would love to come back to see another game soon! read more

I came here to see Tomorrow x Together day 1 and day 2. For both days I had a great view even though I was in a different section each day! Day 1 I was in section 110 and day 2 I was in midfield box 2. The staff was nice and bag check went by super fast so I got in quick. I also have to compliment them on their pizza!! Eating it before the day 1 concert gave me the to energy to cheer on my favorite group!!! read more

Pretty new open air stadium (opened 3 years ago) and is home to the LAFC and the ACFC teams, soccer fields are immaculate and the seating are great. Located in Exposition Park, near the Coliseum. Came here yesterday for the Gun and Roses concert. The venue is clean, ok staffed (hey it's the pandemic), to show you your seats. The stadium has surrounded suites for sporting and concerts. Seats are hard and uncomfortable, massage time later. Numerous concession stands for your $20 beer and $10 popcorn or fries. Parking can be crazy, we bought a parking pass online through Ticketmaster at $54 for general parking, crazy pricing. They had adequate parking control after the event, it only took 30 minutes to exit. Aside from the jacked up pricing for the venue, parking and concessions, I guess it is what it is, a nice clean new stadium in LA. read more

A gorgeous stadium! I'm not a big soccer person, but I had the privilege of attending a game here and it was a lot of fun! I was about half way up in section 214, and I highly recommend those higher seats as you'll get a great view of the field overall (see pic). Section 214 was also great because it was smack in the middle so I had visibility on the whole field. The stadium itself was great - clear signage, clean restrooms, and a nice bar/lounge facility on the main floor. All the food stands are separated out by type of food so I'd recommend doing a lap before deciding what to get. Prices are all reasonable too, not like going to Dodger Stadium and paying $20 for a hot dog. I took an Uber there to avoid dealing with parking and it was very easy to get dropped off and walk right up. Just be aware - they are very strict about the clear bag policy so check their website ahead of time. Also, I went to a game in January and it got a little chilly at night so I suggest bringing a blanket (which are allowed!) read more

BMO Stadium - Great view from section 214 - Stadiums & Arenas Near Me - Los Angeles, California

Attended Mumford and Sons here last weekend and loved it! Read super mixed info between here and the show's site re: bags. All the negative reviews here were from a punk concert a month before our event. Maybe things were more intense for that show bc punk shows ... will be punk shows. Lol For Mumford, they had signs everywhere ab the clear bag policy that's on the venue's website. While they didn't have rulers at security, and I certainly saw clear bags much larger than the allowed size, I will say I saw almost 100% only clear bags inside. Scary part tho considering the shooting climate in our country right now - no one looked inside my clear bag at all. Didn't see security checking anyone else's either. We were instructed to put our bags in a bowl, then walk through the metal detectors with our phones in our hands. We had seats in 125 AA I think it was, which was nose bleeds 3 rows from the top. Lol Great view of the sunset, but these seats would be extremelyyyyy uncomfortable on hot days (luckily our day wasn't bad). Knocked the venue a star because the 2 front big screens are unusually small for a venue of this size. They have a jumbo one on the rear end of the stadium ... and it wasn't on?? Like not once the whole show did it come on. Would have helped us so far from the tiny screens up front to see the show. The beer selection is limited, IMO. Believe our tall cups were $18/each. There's only one tiny stand in the whole place that sells popcorn ... crappy popcorn for a sports arena, too, I was bummed. We also had a pretzel. You can choose salted vs unsalted. We both love salt, but the salted one was literally just salt haha. read more

Gorgeous stadium. Which is state of the art without overdoing it with technology as they let the simple and beautiful architecture work its Magic. Views out of the stadium to downtown and yet the sound reverberates so that cheers from the very engaged supportive section fill the stadium. Parking is an easy walk across a grassy lawn. The food is good, not great but with only 22,000 seats there's no way you can have the choice of somewhere like.SOFI. read more

Coming to watch a game is a fantastic experience! I've only come to two games and it's amazing! I would definitely recommend coming to a game. Parking: it is expensive to park in the lots they charge between $35-$40. If you go around the residential neighborhoods they let you park your car in their houses for $20, that is way cheaper than parking in the lots. Both times I've come to the game I've parked in houses and they take good care of your car. You only have to walk about 2 blocks. Food and drinks: they have a variety of foods like pizza, hamburgers, wings and fries. They have a ton of alcoholic beverages and they even have micheladas. The prices are okay for a stadium, I always eat beforehand and then after the game and at the stadium I just get a beer. read more

Attended the Carin Leon concert tonight and it was a nightmare to get into the parking lots. I arrived to the stadium at 7pm and didn't get into the parking structure until about 9pm. Security not kicking people out of the aisles in the floor sections. People were literally spending half of the concert in the bar lines in the floor section. It's been such a horrible experience. The concert was great but the venue disappointed. I attended the RBD concert last year in the Founders room and that experience was way better but the view wasn't the best. I wanted to come see Los Temerarios here but it'll be a hard pass. So dissatisfied with overall experience. read more

TRASH TRASH TRASH!!!! Not only are they not organized to scan your ticket and make you wait like an hour to get in missing half the concert but they also have you wait in line for drinks then close it on you randomly.

We had a minor medical emergency while attending a concert at Banc of California Stadium, and our guy Marco who was one of the ushers or guest services (sorry I don't know his title) was incredibly helpful. While waiting in line to get in, a friend needed medical attention (thank goodness only minor). Marco was very calm, called the paramedics on staff, stayed with us until they arrived, and made sure my friend was comfortable and hydrated. When my friend was all cleared, he let us know to find him so that he'd get us back up in line so that we didn't have to wait back at the end of the line. So shout out to Marco and the rest of the super helpful staff at Banc of California Stadium! read more

Fake dale dale black and gold !! I've been to two LAFC games and they are always so much fun. The best part of seeing a game is the LAFC 3252 which is the official supporter union for the team. They chant , sing , dance and do so much more that creates such a great vibe. I've been to basketball games and other soccer games but none compare to an LAFC game. It's a must If you love soccer and live in the LA area. Parking is very expensive so I recommend parking in the residential areas or the lots nearby they charge $20 rather than the $50 you'd pay at the stadium parking lot. You can always take Lyft too since they have a Lyft station set up after the game too. They sell tons of food : hamburgers,wings, pizza , popcorn , churros and other snacks. I recommend their micheladas ($17) and they also have beers and margaritas available. A fun and u forgettable experience. read more
