WE ARE TAKING THE SUMMER BY STORM!
From watch parties to tournaments, we are making sure Black LA is represented and fans can come together in peace and harmony in spaces that they know and love.
When the world's eyes turn to Los Angeles, whose communities get seen? As the World Games come to our city, Black neighborhoods have been deliberately left out of the conversation and sidelined from resources, visibility, and access.
History tells us what happens next. Events like these don't just pass through, they leave marks. Displacement. Gentrification. Black and Brown communities are pushed out, and the reverberations outlast any closing ceremony. Even temporary games have lasting consequences.
We're changing that narrative and Black LA Fan Zones are our reclamation. Through this initiative, we are redirecting resources and attention back to the communities that deserve them. We're using the energy of the games as a catalyst for something real: cultural exchange, community trust, and economic opportunity that doesn't just sustain people today, but builds a foundation for long-term prosperity. This is us taking our power back.
HQ: Addis Inglewood
Addis Inglewood is the heart of Black LA Fan Zones, our official headquarters and the gathering place where culture, community, and celebration converge during the World Games. From here, we radiate outward. Every business in this directory is an extension of that same spirit, giving Angelenos and visitors alike the chance to experience the full richness of Black LA — neighborhood by neighborhood.
Black LA Fan Zone Directory
The movement doesn't stop at one door. Our Community Venue Partners across LA are gathering spots in their own right and with each one comes a reason to explore, spend, and connect within Black communities. Whether you're starting your day at HQ or discovering a new favorite spot in your own neighborhood, every visit is an act of community investment.
