LOS ANGELES - January 5, 2022 - (Newswire.com)

The biggest weekend in sports just got Shaq-sized — Shaquille O'Neal is set to bring Big Game Weekend's most in-demand and buzzed-about event to Los Angeles: Shaq's Fun House Presented by FTX. Taking place on Friday, Feb. 11, 2022, at The Shrine Auditorium & Expo Hall, tickets for the event will go on sale to the public this Friday, Jan. 7, at 10 a.m. PST. Starting at $249.99, all tickets include a six-hour open bar and complimentary dining experience. All tickets, Wynn Nightlife VIP Tables, and TickPick VIP Lounge access can be purchased online at www.ShaqsFunHouse.com. This year's presenting partner FTX is poised to bring crypto to Big Game Weekend through exclusive Shaq's Fun House NFTs for all attendees, The FTX Ferris Wheel, Crypto Carnival prizing, and a custom FTX flyaway to meet Shaq.

A true man of the people, this is the fourth year running that Shaquille will host the ultimate Friday night event leading into football's biggest game of the year. Shaq's Fun House is Shaq's personal live event platform that pairs an over-the-top VIP music festival with a larger-than-life carnival experience. Unlike other VIP experiences during Big Game Weekend, Shaq has created a one-of-a-kind event that is open to the public, allowing fans to partake in the fun. Shaq's Fun House has attracted the biggest names in sports and entertainment, solidifying itself as the "must-attend" event of Big Game Weekend with past attendees including Patrick Mahomes, Adam Levine, Rob Gronkowski, Jamie Foxx, Dak Prescott, Reggie Bush, and dozens of other stars. Shaq's Fun House has received media attention and critical acclaim from the likes of Jimmy Fallon, Good Morning America, ESPN, CNN, CNBC, Forbes, Fox Business, TMZ, People, Billboard, Hollywood Reporter, Entrepreneur, and other top-tier media outlets. 

"It's always great to come home to my favorite city, Los Angeles, and I couldn't be more excited to kick off the biggest weekend in sports with our most over-the-top edition of Shaq's Fun House to date. With the help of my friends at FTX, get ready to see performances by Lil Wayne, Zedd, and Diplo, experience a full carnival, and enjoy a true taste of LA with food provided by some of the city's best restaurants. Los Angeles, you have my word that Shaq's Fun House presented by FTX will go down as our fourth championship we have won together," said Shaquille O'Neal. 

Shaq is excited to bring together the best musical lineup of Big Game Weekend featuring headliners Lil Wayne, Zedd, and Special Guest Diplo with a special Halftime Show Featuring DJ Diesel presented by Pepsi Stronger Together. Lil Wayne, an award-winning and game-changing icon, has sold over 120 million records worldwide, making him one of the world's best-selling artists. He has won five GRAMMY® Awards, 11 BET Awards, four Billboard Music Awards, two MTV Video Music Awards, and eight NAACP Image Awards. Multi-platinum, GRAMMY® Award-winning artist, DJ, and producer Zedd is known for chart-topping collaborations and headlining major music festivals around the world. Zedd has worked with a diverse range of artists to create hits including Foxes on "Clarity," Selena Gomez on "I Want You To Know," Alessia Cara on "Stay," and Maren Morris and Grey on the monster hit "The Middle." Diplo is one of the most dynamic forces in music today. The 10-time Grammy-nominated artist is a member of the iconic Major Lazer, one-third of LSD, and half of Silk City with Mark Ronson. His Platinum-certified "Electricity" with Dua Lipa topped charts worldwide and won a Grammy Award for Best Dance Recording.

Shaq is personally curating a culinary experience like no other featuring some of the most iconic restaurants in Los Angeles. Included in every ticket, guests of Shaq's Fun House will be treated to Roscoe's House Of Chicken And Waffles, Pink's Hot Dogs, Diddy Riese, Meat District Butcher Crafted Premium Burgers, Daring Foods Plant-Based Chicken, and Papa Johns Pizza.
