ALTITUDE VERDICT
SoFi Stadium sits 30m (98ft) above sea level, comfortably below the 1,500m mark where thin air begins to affect play. Altitude is not a factor here. Conditions at this venue come down to heat, humidity and the roof rather than elevation.
A fixed translucent canopy shades the bowl while keeping it open-sided, with mild LA conditions throughout.
