$2bn arena to serve as inaugural home of newly launched pro franchise backed by Reddit co-founder

The Intuit Dome, home to the Los Angeles Clippers, has secured its second tenant.

Opened in 2024, the $2 billion venue has already hosted numerous events beyond the NBA.

WWE ran its premiere episode of Raw on Netflix inside the dome last January, while Ronda Rousey‘s mixed martial arts comeback against Gina Carano also unfolded in front of nearly 16,000 in Inglewood.

Moving forward, the Clippers will be sharing their arena.

The Intuit Dome will serve as the inaugural home of a newly launched League One Volleyball (LOVB) franchise.

LOVB Los Angeles will debut during the league’s third season, which begins in December.

The team is owned by Alexis Ohanian, the co-founder of Reddit.

Ohanian and his 776 investment firm entered into definitive agreements to lead the ownership group of the LA-based team in October 2025.

He has recently talked up the Induit Dome as a home venue for the franchise.

“Volleyball already has one of the largest and most passionate communities in Southern California,” Ohanian said this week.

“What it hasn’t had is a professional stage that matches the scale of that fandom. Intuit Dome gives us exactly that.

“We’re building LOVB Los Angeles with the ambition to create one of the best live experiences in women’s sports — and there’s no better place to do it than LA.”

The Intuit Dome offers the team a state-of-the-art, immersive setting for its inaugural season, and will combine a premium fan experience with the energy and connection needed to create an entirely new professional volleyball atmosphere.

Los Angeles is one of four new teams joining LOVB for the coming season.

Franchises are also debuting in Miami, Minnesota and San Francisco.

They will join existing franchises in Atlanta, Houston, Madison, Omaha, Salt Lake City and Austin — the defending champions.

What other sports will the Intuit Dome host moving forward?

As well as regular NBA and volleyball fixtures, the Intuit Dome is said for big things in the coming years.

It has been awarded hosting rights for the 2027 edition of the Laver Cup tennis tournament, and will have a key role for the Olympics.

The dome will host basketball games at LA 2028, and will retain its naming rights for the event.

Intuit has signed on as a founding partner in the financial management software category, and while Olympic venues are typically sponsor-free during the Games, the venue will be one of the first in history to keep its commercial name.
