BE A FRIEND OF THE COLISEUM

WHO WE ARE
The Friends are an ambitious, civic-spirited group of business leaders and philanthropists with deep personal connections to the Coliseum.
WHAT WE DO
The Friends of the Coliseum are always seeking new ways to foster connections between the next generation of Angelenos and this living monument.
The Coliseum is a cultural touchstone for Los Angeles, the United States, and the world. In 2028, it will become the only venue in the world to host three Olympics Games. On its grounds, John F. Kennedy accepted the 1960 Democratic presidential nomination, the 1972 “Black Woodstock” Wattstax Music Festival took place, and the first-ever “Super Bowl” AFC-NFC World Championship Game was played in 1967. From Evel Knievel’s once-in-a-lifetime 50-car jump to the spirited annual UCLA/USC football match, it is the birthplace of countless memories. You can learn more about it at the Coliseum’s official webpage.
