LAFC: Banc of California Stadium designed like no other

In the increasingly commercialised world of modern sport, it is increasingly rare that the fan is put first. But when it came to building the Banc of California Stadium, Los Angeles FC had a very special intention: The fan experience.

During the many years in which the stadium was first designed and then erected, fans were continually consulted on decisions made. They were asked what they wanted, and then the ideas that worked were put in place. That is rare. And important.

This brilliant short documentary by COPA90US shows the remarkable home-opening against the Seattle Sounders through the eyes of the 3252 Supporter’s Group.
