The Intuit Dome will open in Inglewood on Thursday night with Bruno Mars being the first performer to have a concert there.

Inglewood Mayor James T. Butts told KNX News that the venue, which will be home to the L.A. Clippers, is not just for concerts or basketball games.

“It's going to be coming to live an experience,” he said.

He also said there are plenty of features that will help enhance the experience for attendees.

“They have 122 restrooms. There will be no waiting in line, male or female, for your restroom breaks,” he said.  “The suites…they're very much set up so that people will come and watch the game. They don't want you in the suite during the game. They want you in the seats. Every seat in the arena has its own power source to power your phone. “

If you don’t have your power cord, you can buy one for $5 at the concession stand.

The arena also includes five basketball courts and an 80,000-square-foot outdoor plaza that has two bars, a restaurant, and a team store, according to City News Service.

The arena is also cashless so attendees will have to download an app and put their payment information on their phone.

Mars' concert begins at 8 p.m. He will also have another concert on Friday.
