    It's one of my favorite venues in LA. The place is big, spacious, clean and has plenty of seating. It's close to Staples Center, there is a mall near and plenty of restaurants nearby. - Penina Mezei

    The ESPYS have been held at the Nokia Theatre since 2008. Notable hosts have included Justin Timberlake, Samuel Jackson, Seth Meyers, Rob Riggle and Jon Hamm. Not a bad starting five.

    Came for the BET awards (Worked it). Really nice theater, inside and out. Behind the scenes it's very organized, perfect for performances and work.

    With only 7,100 seats, you better get your tickets early; this place puts on quite the show, so... sit back and enjoy!

    I've seen so many k-pop concerts here, but the best seating is either right in the front or in that front area, otherwise the people on stage look like ants..!

    Here’s a tip: Make sure you keep singing when the fireworks go off, and don’t let the smoke and falling glitter distract you. I should mention that this tip is just for if you win “American Idol.”

    Leave plenty time to park! Nearby lots charge $20 to 30$ so may as well buy parking when you buy your tickets.
