The Nokia Theater is part of L.A. Live, a coordinated project to rejuvenate Downtown Los Angeles. It is slated to cost over $2.5 billion and it will consist of 5,600,000 square feet of apartments, ballrooms, bars, concert theaters, restaurant, movie theaters, and a hotel and condominium tower. Truly an enormous undertaking, L.A. Live is highly anticipated and looks to make Los Angeles even more appealing to tourists.



Because of the sheer amount of entertainment opportunities that will eventually be a part of L.A. Live, the Nokia Theater may seem a bit overshadowed. But the mid-sized venue with seats for over 7,100 has already held concerts of the likes of The Eagles and The Dixie Chicks and has hosted the American Music Awards and the finale of the seventh season of the popular television show American Idol.

Designed in such a way that no seat is further than 210 feet away from the stage, the Nokia Theater has over 5,000 square feet of LED displays inside and out that are great for displaying everything that is going on to everyone in the area. Although it is becoming a popular venue for live television broadcasts and award shows, the Nokia Theater is also available for corporate showcases and speaker series.

Nokia Theater can be considered to be one of the biggest attractions in downtown Los Angeles, especially when it is host to of such events like the Primetime Emmy Awards and the Latin Grammy Awards. It is primed to become one of the defining structures of Los Angeles and will certainly see plenty of usage in the years to come.
