Officials are urging those who don’t have ticket to the Monday, Feb. 24, 2020 memorial for Kobe Bryant and his daughter Gianna to stay away from Staples Center — which will be closed to traffic — and instead watch the tribute on TV.
It will NOT be shown on TVs in the LA Live area near Staples Center, said LA police Chief Michel Moore.
The memorial service is set to begin at 10 a.m. Pacific time Monday, and it is expected to be broadcast on all of the major television networks as well as other local LA stations. Yahoo! Sports is streaming it live.
ABC News is among those broadcasting the event and offering a live stream.
Staples Center officials say the event should end about 1 p.m.
