SoFi Stadium is a multi-billion dollar facility that opened in September of last year. Featuring a state-of-the-art ‘Matrix’ Turf artificial surface and a translucent roof, it has a capacity of 70,000 though only a limited amount will be permitted due to Covid regulations.
This will be the first ever rugby game at the venue. The Giltinis normally play at the Memorial Coliseum but a scheduling conflict meant that it was unavailable on the requested date.
