Long Beach City College – Esports Lab

A New Kind of Arena

The eSports Lab at Long Beach City College reimagines what an athletics facility can be, blending competition, technology, and community into a single, high-performance environment. Designed to support one of the region’s leading collegiate eSports programs, the space functions as both a competitive arena and an everyday destination for students.

Designed for Play and Connection

At the core of the lab are 47 high-performance gaming stations organized to support both individual and team-based play. A dedicated casting booth and integrated display systems elevate gameplay into a spectator experience, allowing competitions to be broadcast and shared in real time. The layout encourages interaction and collaboration, creating an environment that supports teamwork, strategy, and engagement.

Open, Inclusive, and Active

Beyond competition, the space is designed to be welcoming and accessible, supporting students who come to learn, connect, or recharge between classes. As part of the Athletics Department, the lab expands the definition of campus life, offering a flexible, tech-forward environment that reflects how students gather, compete, and build community today.
