The Return of the Fabulous Forum

forum

For years now while attending concerts, the atmosphere of the once Great Western Forum, now just called The Forum.. was a time capsule of it’s past glory from the days of the Los Angeles Lakers championships, the Los Angeles Kings games, and various events. Although the venue has history, it’s 80’s décor and stale odor made it an obsolete event venue in 2013.

The Madison Square Garden Company bought the property in 2012 and they announced this week that they have gone ahead with renovations to the Forum to make it Fabulous once again. The Forum is set to re-open in January of 2014 with the Eagles kicking things off with a concert. Among the renovations are new bowl construction along with new seating. Exterior work along with an Exterior Terrace, and Floor Level Hospitality renovations are among the new features as well a revamped Forum Club and Whistle Stop.

With venues like the Gibson Amphitheatre in Universal City, Ca closing it’s doors later this year, this is great news to a historical venue like the Forum which had lost it’s luster from the 1980’s hay day when it was a premier sporting venue. Now in 2014 it will continue on it’s legacy as a premier concert venue in Los Angeles and will once again put Inglewood, Ca back on the map!
