Pacsun — a fashion retailer focused on youth culture — hosted an exclusive behind-the-scenes event inside the Los Angeles Rams locker room at SoFi Stadium during the NFL Draft weekend. This activation turned a typically off-limits athletes-only space into a venue for brand partners, industry leaders, and creative collaborators.
The gathering featured product displays from Pacsun’s in-house sport labels, a reading from CEO Brieane Olson’s forthcoming book on co-creation, and a fireside conversation with Rams executives about how the two organizations have built their nearly decade-long relationship around shared values. Attendees included representatives from Amazon, Fear of God, the Los Angeles Lakers, and several streetwear and community-focused brands, after which guests moved to public fan events such as the Zillow Draft House and Rams Block Party.
