The Los Angeles Rams will officially have a new home for their headquarters and practice facility next year. Rams COO Kevin Demoff announced on Tuesday that the team is moving its practice headquarters to Woodland Hills, taking over a property that owner Stan Kroenke bought last year.
This will be a temporary facility while the permanent headquarters is being built. The goal is for the temporary setup to be ready for the Rams before the start of the 2024 season after they return from training camp.
The Rams shared a rendering of what the facility will look like during the announcement celebration on Tuesday and can be seen below.

“This is a monumental day for the Los Angeles Rams as we can now call Woodland Hills and the City of Los Angeles our home,” Demoff said. “We are grateful to Councilman Blumenfield for his support and to this wonderful community for welcoming us to their neighborhood. Since bringing the Rams home to Los Angeles, Stan Kroenke’s commitment to this region is unmatched and we are excited to expand our footprint and deepen our impact across the city.”
Construction on the temporary facility will begin later this week and grass for the practice fields is already being grown.
Currently, the Rams’ practice facility is located at California Lutheran University in Thousand Oaks, Calif.
Rams COO Kevin Demoff said they’d love to have the team’s temporary practice facility in Woodland Hills built by the start of the offseason program, with drop-dead date for move being when team is back from training camp.

From the press release from the Rams:
This is the first step of Kroenke’s long-term vision for the land, which is part of the tremendous development envisioned for Woodland Hills under the Warner Center 2035 plan. Once the practice facility is set up, the organization will begin exploring a larger development that will include the permanent headquarters and practice facility for the team, as well as a plan to include residential, commercial, and retail uses along with green spaces and other community-serving amenities.
While the goal is for the facility to be open before the start of the 2024 season, the Rams will begin setting up trailers for meeting rooms and office space for coaches, players, scouts and more.
