Plans for the 52-acre development to be known as Rams Village at Warner Center also will include parkland, and office uses, as well as open spaces and indoor entertainment venues, according to the Kroenke Organization.
In total, the entire 100-acre development acquired by the Kroenke Organization in 2022 could cost up to $10 billion, with work starting as early as 2027. It would require about 10 years to complete, the Los Angles Times reported.
"As we embark on our 10th season back in Los Angeles, we remain committed to helping shape the future of this great city," Kroenke said in a statement. "Rams Village at Warner Center will continue to transform Woodland Hills by providing a vibrant gathering place for the community through publicly accessible open spaces, new entertainment venues, a retail village, and residential offerings."
The Rams said the training facility would feature the two full-sized grass fields that are currently in place, while the proposal calls for an additional 150,000 square foot indoor practice field that could seat up to 2,500 guests. The land currently houses the team's temporary practice facility which opened in August 2024, and which will continue to be used through the construction of the permanent headquarters, the organization said.
Adjacent to the Rams headquarters is proposed to be two indoor performance venues, one boasting 5,000 seats and one with 2,500 seats. These venues will serve as settings to bring a variety of new entertainment options to the heart of the San Fernando Valley, from concerts to awards shows, according to the company.
"Los Angeles is extremely proud to have the Rams announce their new home in the Valley along with new major plans and commitments that will benefit not only the San Fernando Valley, but our entire city," Mayor Karen Bass said. "This proposed project will be transformative -- bringing new jobs, new housing and a first-of-its-kind major entertainment venue to the San Fernando Valley. We are looking forward to working with Stan Kroenke, the Kroenke Organization and the Los Angeles Rams to bring new energy and excitement to the community as this development comes to life."
