The Andrea Arena is a 20,000+ seat multi-purpose indoor arena located in Hollywood Boulevard. The arena is better known as a music venue as it hosts mostly musical concerts/events. It is the largest indoor arena in Los Angeles with the second biggest being Downtown L.A. Live's Staples Center which can hold up to 20,000 patrons.

Naming
After going through various names including, Hollywood Arena and Star Arena, the owners and operators agreed not to sell naming rights despite the high demand they received from naming rights-buyers, instead they decided to honor the Hollywood-born singer-songwriter, and actress, Danielle Andrea. They did so by naming the Arena, the Andrea Arena and later held a ceremony on Hollywood Boulevard to confirm the details and certificate the singer.
