Great venues and great weather are just a couple of the reasons Greater Ontario, Calif., is always an excellent option for hosting sports events. But in this Sideline Chat filmed at the TEAMS Conference & Expo, Justin Balancio, senior manager, national sales for GOCAL – Greater Ontario California, shared a few reasons why this is an even more appealing time than usual for this destination.

Among the upcoming attractions are the 2026 FIFA World Cup and 2028 Olympic Games — both of which will be staged in Southern California — as well as next year’s opening of Ontario Sports Empire, the 190-acre multisport facility. Add in flexible venues like the Toyota Arena and the Ontario Convention Center, and GOCAL can work for competitions of all variety, and now is a great time to host an event in Greater Ontario.
