The west coast city will begin its hosting duties with the ninth annual X Games next year between August 14-18 staged at the Staples Centre, owned an operated by AEG, and its neighbouring facilities.
Said ESPN president George Bodenheimer: "Southern California is the action sports hub and the X Games will reach new heights in the City of Los Angeles.
After collaborating with AEG on a successful ESPY awards earlier this year, we are confident that our combined promotional reach will strengthen the growing significance of the X Games as an elite sports championship event.
"The world-class Staples Center and other neighboring venues will set the stage for a spectacular experience for our athletes, fans, sponsors and affiliates over the next two years."
Los Angeles will be the venue for the next two X Games, the franchise's owner ESPN has announced.
