Besides hosting Major League Baseball games, the venue has also served as an entertainment facility for countless musical acts over its decades of existence.

History
• Since their move to Los Angeles back in the mid-1960s, the Angels have played at the confines of Angel Stadium, but the venue has underwent a number of name changes over the years.
• Ground was broken on the project back on August 31, 1964 and finished just under two years later as the stadium opened on April 19, 1966.
• In the late 1970s, the LA Rams and owner Carroll Rosenbloom began looking for a new home to play in. They would eventually reach a deal that would allow them to share the venue with the Angels of MLB.
• In 1998 the stadium underwent its most major renovations to date complete with new scoreboards and display screens, as well as new private suite features that were added to enhance the more premium seating experience.
