New Clippers venue to offer extended alcohol service hours, says Governor Newsom

Gov. Gavin Newsom of California has approved a special provision for a new sports facility home to the Clippers, allowing an on-site club to serve alcoholic beverages until 4 a.m. This decision marks a notable exception to the state’s usual 2 a.m. alcohol service shutdown, reflecting a shift toward looser regulations for some venues.

This extension aims to enhance the nightlife experience at the Clippers’ new arena, potentially increasing revenue and improving the overall spectator experience at late-night events. The move was met with mixed reactions, with supporters citing economic benefits and critics raising concerns about public safety and noise.

The policy will be closely monitored to assess its impact on the community and local businesses. Depending on the results, this could lead to further regulatory adjustments in the state’s approach to alcohol service hours at major entertainment venues.
