The History of the Microsoft Theater
Owned and operated by AEG, one of the biggest entertainment venue management companies in the world, the Microsoft Theater was originally known as the Nokia Theatre LA Live when it first opened its doors. Once Nokia’s mobile phone division was picked up by Microsoft in 2014, though, the naming rights were passed along as well. This prompted the name change to Microsoft Theatre in 2015. The plaza surrounding the theater, once known as LA Live, was also renamed as part of the deal, first being known as Microsoft Square and now going by Xbox Plaza.
