UCLA is committed to making Pauley Pavilion a world-class athletic and cultural venue to serve the growing needs of the campus and the greater Los Angeles community. The transformation of the arena will preserve Pauley Pavilion's mystique while creating a modern, highly-functional facility that will serve as the foundation of success for the next generation of UCLA students and student-athletes.

UCLA has partnered with Seattle-based NBBJ, a leading global architecture and design firm, to expand and renovate Pauley Pavilion into a state-of-the-art multi-purpose facility. NBBJ has transformed the way fans experience sporting events through their work on such projects as Safeco Field in Seattle, Paul Brown Stadium in Cincinnati, Miller Park in Milwaukee as well as Staples Center in the heart of downtown Los Angeles.
