The Greatest Stadium in the World
About us
Home to the USC football team since 1923, and a designated National Historic Landmark, the Los Angeles Memorial Coliseum has the most diverse and all encompassing history of any stadium in the world. It has hosted two Super Bowls (I and VII), a World Series (1959), two Summer Olympics (Xth Olympiad in 1932 and XXIIIrd Olympiad in 1984)- and soon a third, XXXIVth Olympiad in 2028. Along with the adjacent Sports Arena, which closed its doors in 2016, the Coliseum is credited with helping to start the migration of professional sports teams to the West Coast. The complex provided a home for the Rams (1946-79, returning again in 2016), the Dodgers (1958-61), and the Lakers (1960-67), and has also been home to a variety of Southern California teams, including: the Raiders (1982-94), UCLA Football (1933-81), the Chargers (1960), Clippers (1984-99), USC Basketball (1959-2006), UCLA Basketball (1959-65), the Cobras (1988, Arena Football), Ice Dogs (1995-96, IHL), Blades (1961-1967), Sharks (1972-74, WHA), Stars (1968-70, ABA) and Kings (1967, NHL). The Coliseum has also welcomed a wide range of diverse and legendary events, such as entertainer Evel Knievel (1973), a Papal Mass by Pope John Paul II (1987), Nelson Mandela’s “Crusade against Apartheid” (1990), visits from several U.S. Presidents (FDR, JFK, and Reagan, to name a few), and endless sold-out concerts from such iconic artists as Pink Floyd, U2, The Who, Metallica, Bruce Springsteen, The Rolling Stones, and many more. We’re celebrating 100 years in 2023! For more information about the legacy of the “Greatest Stadium in the World,“ we welcome you to visit coliseumforever.com.

Earth Day is every day at the LA Coliseum! This year, we are proud to have achieved 92.2% waste diversion at NASCAR's Busch Light Clash and donated 2,300 pounds of food to local food banks in February alone. We also are excited to take part in Kimberly-Clark's RightCycle Program by returning our food service gloves to have them recycled. We're energized about these new initiatives and eager to develop new ways to reduce our footprint 🌱

Thanks for featuring us, Envoy Solutions! We're proud to be zero waste 🌎 #ColiseumForever https://lnkd.in/gPZq2TZa
♻️ If a century-old stadium can achieve zero waste, you can too, with a solid game plan and partners to help you reach your goal. Over the past year, the 100-year-old Los Angeles Memorial Coliseum hit its highest waste diversion rate ever of 91.74% through a series of steps dating back to 2015. WAXIE Sanitary Supply, An Envoy Solutions Company helped the Coliseum launch its zero waste program, including by providing proper signage to show fans how to sort compostable, recyclable, and disposable items in labeled bins throughout the stadium. “The first round of sorting starts with the fans themselves. If you can guide them to place all of their cans in recycling, that makes it easier for our sort of team,” said Matthew Buswell, Director of Stadium Operations. “We placed WAXIE stickers on our trash cans to enhance fan engagement and increase visibility. This was a very important step to get our program off the ground and running.” Check out how the Coliseum staff focus on four key areas to manage their zero waste program via our recent article by Alex Shabad in the Envoy Solutions Insider: https://lnkd.in/gx-mWwvG #EnvoySolutionsInsider #WasteDiversion #ZeroWaste #Recycling #SustainabilityGoals #FacilitiesManagement #LAMemorialColiseum
