LA Sparks Unveil $150 Million, 55,000-Square-Foot Practice Facility Set for 2027 in El Segundo

The project signals a long-term commitment in the WNBA facilities race after the franchise trained for years at rotating sites.

Overview

  • The new headquarters will be in El Segundo’s Continental Park with Gensler as architect, Transwestern as development manager and Studio Blitz leading interiors.
  • Plans include two WNBA regulation courts, a circular locker room, hydrotherapy suites, an indoor-outdoor player sanctuary with an outdoor spa pool, nap rooms and wellness spaces with abundant natural light.
  • The Sparks released renderings and set an opening target before the 2027 season, while not disclosing a construction start or interim permitting milestones.
  • Team business operations will move into the building upon completion, consolidating basketball and front-office functions under one roof.
  • The organization characterizes the $150 million spend as the largest single-team investment in women’s sports, and El Segundo officials welcomed the addition to a city that also hosts the Lakers, Chargers and Kings.
