Rams to have NFL Draft headquarters from Los Angeles Fire Department

The NFL Draft is a special occasion for all involved. For the Los Angeles Rams, the 2025 NFL Draft will be of even greater significance.

The Rams will conduct their draft operations from Los Angeles Fire Department (LAFD) Air Operations, honoring the first responders who call Los Angeles home. It will mark the first time in NFL history a team will take their draft operations to a fire station.

With the assistance of Zillow, the Rams and LAFD will transform a room within LAFD Air Operations to serve as general manager Les Snead and head coach Sean McVay’s draft headquarters for the three-day event on April 24-26. An adjacent hangar will be used as a space for coaches, scouts, team personnel and media.

LAFD Air Operations will be fully operational during the NFL Draft.

The special Rams draft headquarters site comes in the aftermath of the deadly wildfires that ravaged the Los Angeles area in January, that killed at least 29 people and burned over 37,000 acres, or 57.8 square miles.

The Rams have donated nearly $2 million to fire relief efforts, according to the team. As part of the Rams’ continued efforts to help uplift the community following the devastating blaze, the team and Zillow will work in conjunction to renovate LAFD Air Operation’s recreation room.

“Drafting from LAFD Air Operations is a powerful reminder of what it means to represent Los Angeles,” Rams president Kevin Demoff said in a statement. “Since the wildfires devastated our region in January, we have looked to bring LA together to help with the recovery efforts, raise the spirits of those impacted, and shine a light on our first responders. We are humbled to partner with LAFD during one of the NFL’s biggest moments to express gratitude for those who risk their lives daily to protect our city.”
