Acrisure Arena Named IE's Best Place To See A Concert

PALM SPRINGS, CA — The Los Angeles Times announced winners and finalists this week for its 2023 Best of the Southland San Gabriel Valley/Inland Empire reader survey, and Acrisure Arena was voted the "best place to see a concert."

Indeed, the $300 million facility in Greater Palm Springs has booked top acts from around the globe, and the big names just keep coming to the 11,000-seat arena that opened Dec. 14.

Proud home of the American Hockey League's Coachella Valley Firebirds, the arena — with its 10,000 square feet of acoustic lapendary panels for sound engineering — is a public-private partnership between Oak View Group, Seattle Kraken Hockey, and Live Nation.

The Best of the Southland selections are readers' choice and did not involve the editorial or reporting staff of the L.A. Times, according to the newspaper.

The full list of winners is at latimes.com/bestofthesouthland.

Voting for the Times’ “best of the best” competition opens August 6 at latimes.com/bestofthesouthland.
